Hi Carrie,
Glad my post was helpful to you.
The good news is you are now almost certain what the cause of the problem is.
The bad news is that you have to figure out how to control it. No one has yet been successful in controlling the weather!
A few hits: when it rains or is otherwise “moldy” outside, keep the windows closed. If you have central air, shut off the damper that brings in outside air. If it is a bit damp and neither warm not cold, turning on a heater will help dry the air and reduce the impact of mold.
If you have a basement, do everything you can to keep it dry.
Just a few points to get you started.
Good luck!

Your post confirms it for me. Well, I’ll have to talk to a doc but I’m pretty sure it’s mold allergies. I’ll be watching mold counts now when I’m watching the morning news. I wonder if I will see a correlation. I bet I will.
