Sneezy does it ...15m hayfever sufferers face weeks of hell due to pollen bomb blast

And Dr Beverley Adams-Groom of the University of Worcester - who advises the Met Office on pollen levels warns warmer days could make it even worse.

This weekend will see a pollen bomb in the Midlands and South, triggered by the end of our wettest spring since 1986, and temperatures forecast to hit 18C.

Warned

But Dr Adams-Groom has stressed that we are just at the start of weeks of high levels (measured at 50 pollen grains per cubic meter of air) that could soar to "very high" (150 pollen grains per cubic metre).

She told the Daily Express: "We are forecasting for very high levels for much of the rest of June.

"The risk is increasing because most grasses are coming into flower.

"We have at least three weeks ahead when we expect to see high and very high counts across much of the country with temperatures of around 18-19C predicted.

"We have passed the main tree pollen season which runs from January to May.
