Google search just gained a helpful new superpower.

The search engine can now provide personalized updates about seasonal allergies at your current location directly in search.

Much like weather forecasts, when you search for queries like "pollen forecast" you'll get a detailed look at pollen levels in your area for the next few days. You can also opt to get mobile alerts, which will notify you when pollen counts are likely to be "particularly high."

The feature is rolling out now.

The company worked with The Weather Channel, which has long provided pollen info and other allergy-related forecasts, to bring the predictions to its service. Google says searches for allergy information consistently spike every year in the spring and the fall, when seasonal allergy sufferers tend to have more symptoms.

By putting the pollen count predictions right in search, the information should now be a lot easier to find.
