Comes with the season. Question is are you mentioning this because of the mess the pollen makes on a clean car or because it triggers allergies?

We're a few weeks ahead of you here in Northwest Florida with the start of pollen. I lived in NC for 20 years and I think the season lasted longer due to the variety of trees.

Stopped at the Outer Banks on my bike about this time of year 2 years ago. Came out of my hotel and my bike was a different color.
