That's a narrow-leaved ash, also known as southern ash.

Thank you! It is awful. At least, I think it’s the culprit of my allergies. Either way, I greatly appreciate your insight on this one!

Pollen, I guess? I'm afraid I don't know a whole lot about allergens, but hope it can help you to find some countermeasure... Maybe it's time to get the masks out again :-/

Ah, thank you. It’s not Covid, though. It stops with Benadryl, but Benadryl aggravates my asthma.

Oh no, I meant masks to keep the pollen from getting into your airways...

Oh, okay. I see what you mean. Hey, that might work!
