There may be times where smoke and extreme heat occur at the same time, which creates new challenges. During smoke, you are trying to keep your windows and doors closed to keep the smoke out. But when it's hot out and you don't have air conditioning, you may want to open your windows to let in fresh, cooler air, especially at night. Air quality can remain unhealthy for a long time and prevent you from opening your windows to cool down your house.
Read Oregon Health Authority's advice for staying safe during extreme heat, and has a program offering free air conditioners and air filters to people who qualify.
