- How to protect yourself from the bad air caused by wildfires
Wildfire smoke can degrade air quality over long distances, affecting regions far from the fire source. The EPA's Air Quality Index categorizes air quality levels, with values above 150 being harmful to everyone. Precautions include wearing N95 masks, using air quality monitors, and improving indoor air quality with MERV 13 filters.
