The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) has

of fine particulate due to wildfire smoke. Concentrations will linger
from Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (USG) range.

It is recommended that, when possible, you avoid strenuous outdoor
activities, especially those with heart disease and respiratory

as:
- outdoor burning;
- use of residential wood burning devices.

Tips for households:
