Using National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrative Data, it is possible to do a ranking of Texas cities based on annual average particulate matter concentrations (in micrograms per cubic meter). Doing so reveals that many West Texas cities are represented on the list.
I have had such fun this week with allergies, a sore throat, mocos and eventually the loss of my voice. When it is literally your livelihood, it is zero fun. Especially when you don't see it coming. I was good one minute, TMI...blowing my nose, sneezing, coughing and such, and all of a sudden the hoarse voice, then little to no voice.
Check this out! You may have heard me talking on the radio about the allergy test I recently took. Texan Allergy in Midland is where I went and this is how it went down. The process was so easy and I now know exactly what I am allergic to. Cats! Severely. lol It's probably a good thing I've never had one as a pet.
