## Resource

Boise is facing a brutal double whammy: record-breaking heat and hazardous wildfire smoke. Temperatures soar past 100 degrees with little relief at night, triggering heat advisories for vulnerable populations. Meanwhile, smoke from distant Oregon fires has degraded air quality across ten Idaho counties, including Ada, pushing conditions into the unhealthy range. The combo of heat and smoke poses serious health risks, especially for those with heart or lung conditions. Interestingly, the smoke may even cool the ground slightly by blocking sunlight — but meteorologists aren’t sure if that’ll offset the scorching heat. With triple-digit temps forecasted through Thursday and Friday, experts urge everyone to stay hydrated, limit outdoor exposure, and protect themselves and pets from the dangerous air.
