Wildfire smoke travels thousands of miles from its source. Even if the skies look clear, tiny particles in smoke — called PM2.5 — can still reach your area and impact your health. Children, older adults, and people with asthma, heart disease, or other health conditions are especially vulnerable.

Protect yourself and your family by planning ahead:

  • Refill essential medications
  • Gather any specialized equipment you might need
  • Have an evacuation plan that includes a cleaner air space
  • Know who to call for help

You may never need to use your plan, but having one reduces stress and keeps you ready.
