I *rarely* have respiratory problems, and if I do it is in the Spring with allergies. But last winter and this winter in the SF Bay Area I have had both allergy and cold symptoms, I think because the air pollution is so bad here right now because this January we have hardly had any rain and the air is dirty from vehicle emissions and burning wood.
Granted, there is too much dust in my apartment but that will by gone by this Thursday when I have professional cleaners clean my place way better than I do, but the last few weeks I have had to fight off a head cold from moving down into my chest like it did last year.
I think that the local Bay Area media is avoiding covering the terrible winter air quality.

Fairbanks Alaska, when the temperature drops they have an issue called Ice Fog... this is pollutant filled air that forms Ice crystals and hangs like a down comforter in the air. you can compare it to the fog in Monterey bay or SF only 9 times worse.

All that you have to do is come to Grand Rapids, Michigan. It may be a bit cold but we sure have great benefits. The snow, the cold, and no smog in winter nor in summer. It is wonderful year around here.
