Original Note:
This is in fact wildfire smoke, not some other deliberate poison. Wildfire smoke can be hazardous to health depending on the concentration of particulates in the air; the EPA's AirNow website and app are useful for determining air quality levels and precautions necessary: https://www.airnow.gov/aqi/aqi-basics/ https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/27/us/midwest-chicago-smoke-air-quality.html https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/live-blog/rcna91545
