Rain: The humidity in the air provides a fertile environment for the growth and reproduction of mold and mites. In contrast, rainy weather reduces the spread of pollen. Cold weather : which stimulates asthma attacks in sufferers and leads to narrowing of the airways, especially among those with asthma resulting from exercise. Hot weather : there may be more pollutants in the air, which triggers allergic asthma attacks.
