Impact Level: High

Forecast Confidence: High


Orange Air Quality Warning in Effect (Very High Health Risk) Avoid outdoor activities. Where: Fraser Valley Eastern – Chilliwack, Agassiz, Hope What you can do: -Check in on others who may be more affected. People at higher risk include those with lung, heart or other chronic conditions, pregnant people, infants, children, older adults, and outdoor workers. -Improve indoor air quality.

If possible, adjust the ventilation system to reduce smoke coming indoors. -Keep windows and doors closed while running air filtration. If it’s hot, focus on staying cool. -Spend time in places with air conditioning if your home is smoky or too hot. Try community centres, libraries, or malls. -Seek medical help if you experience severe symptoms such as wheezing, chest pain, trouble breathing or severe cough. Call 911 in emergencies. -Manage chronic conditions and carry rescue medications with you (e.g. inhalers). -If you must be outside, a well-fitted N95, KN95, or KF94 mask offers the most protection.
