Wildfire season is here. Do you know what to do if smoke reaches your area? Wildfire smoke can reach far away from where fires burn, and it can make anyone sick. Those with asthma, COPD, heart disease, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, or who are pregnant are at especially high risk. If smoke reaches your area, here's what you can do to protect yourself and your family. #CDCHealthySummer# #WildfireSafety# #AirQuality# #WildfireSmoke#

Wildfire smoke is blanketing America's cities. Climate change is the common scapegoat—but the real reason is negligence. Both Canada and the U.S. know how to make fires smaller and less severe. The question is how many more suffocating summers it will take before their governments figure out that managing forests is better and cheaper than watching them burn. @Shawn_Regan & @Sean_Speer on why America keeps choking on wildfire smoke:

Wildfire smoke is impacting air quality across much of the Great Lakes region into New England and the Mid-Atlantic with widespread Air Quality Alerts in effect. Check current conditions at

Wildfire smoke is impacting air quality across much of the Great Lakes region into the Northeast U.S. with Air Quality Alerts in effect. Poor air quality can be hazardous to anyone. Before spending time outdoors, check the air quality forecast to ensure that you aren’t doing yourself more harm than good.

Wildfire smoke, dangerous heat and major flooding are affecting millions across the country. Meteorologist @RobMarciano is at the weather map tracking it all.

🚁 SEE WILDFIRE SMOKE? STAY AWAY. Pilots and drone operators (yes, including drone hobbyists) should remain at least 15 miles from wildfire smoke and avoid active aerial firefighting operations. Wildfire airspace is hazardous, with low-flying helicopters and airtankers, rapidly changing conditions, and reduced visibility. Not every wildfire has a Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) in place when aircraft first arrive. Even if your GPS or flight app doesn't show one yet, treat any smoke column as active firefighting airspace. Unauthorized flights can ground firefighting aircraft, delay emergency response, and may result in significant fines, criminal penalties, and liability for firefighting costs. Your decision to stay away helps firefighters do their job safely and protects lives, property, and natural resources. #FlySafe# #AviationSafety# #UAS# #Wildfires# #California#
