Dallas, TX Oak Pollen
Oak pollen in Dallas usually peaks around March, reaching Very High at its worst. Dallas-Fort Worth catches a bit of everything Texas throws at it: cedar blown up from the Hill Country on north winds in winter, a strong oak and grass spring, and a long ragweed fall.
Oak is the heavyweight of the Dallas spring, peaking in late March and April when a yellow-green film settles over everything outdoors.

Oak pollen by month in Dallas
How oak usually runs across the year. The current month is outlined.
Managing oak season in Dallas
If oak is your trigger, start a daily antihistamine like cetirizine (Zyrtec) or loratadine (Claritin) a week or two before the March peak, rather than waiting for symptoms. Keep windows closed on high-count mornings, shower and change clothes after time outside, and run the AC on recirculate in the car.
When symptoms don't ease with over-the-counter medicine, an allergist in Texas can test whether oak is really what you react to and talk through longer-term options like allergy shots.
