Wildfire smoke is becoming a regular event for Spokane, but we're ready for it this year. Smoke Ready Spokane shares resources and steps to keep you and your family safe this wildfire smoke season.
We've put a checklist together to help you get ready for this wildfire smoke season in Spokane.
Plan ahead to reduce your exposure to wildfire smoke by creating a Cleaner Air Room in your home.
Check our current and forecasted Air Quality Index (AQI) at Spokane Clean Air to help you plan your outdoor activities.
While our region has long experienced seasonal fires, wildfire smoke is becoming an annual event in Spokane. But just as we prepare for heavy snow in the winter, we can plan to have materials, information, and tools on hand for ourselves and family members to stay healthy when smoke changes our air quality.

Everyone should have a plan to shelter indoors when AQI is 150+ (the red category), but did you know that children under age 18, adults over age 65, people with asthma or respiratory and heart conditions, pregnant people, and others at higher risk from smoke should stay indoors when AQI is over 100 (unhealthy for Sensitive Groups/in the Orange category)?
