During periods of smoke, listen to your symptoms. If the smoke is bothering you:
- Stay calm.
- Wait until the smoke has cleared before doing any heavy activities.
If you take medication for asthma or other breathing problems, make sure you have your medication with you.
Make sure you stay cool if it's hot and smoky outside. Heat is more dangerous than smoke.
