Winds have brought in a considerable amount of smoke to Calgary from area wildfires, pushing the Air Quality Health Index up and forcing Environment Canada to issue an air quality advisory on Tuesday.
Environment Canada had Calgary's AQHI at 3 at 6 a.m., but the conditions are expected to get much worse through the day.
While Environment and Climate Change Canada's AQHI currently has the city's "observed conditions" at only a three, or low risk, the smoke was evident throughout the city in the morning."Smoke is causing or expected to cause poor air quality and reduced visibility," "Consider reducing or rescheduling strenuous activities outdoors if you are experiencing symptoms," the website said.
" set the fan to recirculate air constantly. You can also use a portable High Efficiency Particulate Air air cleaner. Keep your doors and windows closed if the temperature in your home is comfortable."
