Writing on Twitter, the Met Office said: "It is the peak season for grass pollen meaning that the pollen count is high to very high for much of the U.K"
People who suffer from hay fever are allergic to this pollen, so when they inhale the particles they can experience significant irritation and inflammation. It is believed that more than 10 million people in the UK suffer from hay fever which can include symptoms such as frequent sneezing, a runny or blocked nose, as well as itchy eyes and throat.
