Summary

Allegheny County’s health officials are urging residents to stay indoors as dangerous smoke and extreme heat combine to create hazardous air quality. Tiny airborne particles can penetrate lungs and trigger heart attacks or irregular rhythms—even if you don’t feel symptoms right away. Doctors advise avoiding outdoor activity, wearing N95 masks if you must go outside, and staying cool indoors. While one hospital reports no surge in ER visits, another sees more patients linked to the smoke and heat—prompting a clear warning: if you feel dizzy or short of breath, seek help immediately.
