🔥 Being #SmokeReady means being informed.

When there are wildfires, it's crucial to know where to get reliable information about smoke conditions. Use resources like the Air Quality Index (AQI), The Oregon Smoke Blog, and apps like AirNow are helpful to stay updated.

🔥Smoke from wildfires, prescribed burns, wood stoves, and other household sources contains a mixture of harmful substances like particulate matter, carbon monoxide, and volatile organic compounds. These pollutants can have negative impacts on our health and the environment. As we gear up for wildfire season in the Pacific Northwest, let's prepare ourselves by understanding the dangers of smoke and the sources that contribute to it. Together, we can help our communities be #SmokeReady.

📣 Comment below: What do you do to prepare for wildfire season?

[Multnomah County Health Dept @MultCoHealth]

Heat expected tomorrow!

Early season heat is hard on our bodies because we aren’t used to it yet.

Stay safe by:

- Drinking extra water
- Taking breaks in the shade or A/C
- Exercising in cooler hours
- Be careful of cold, fast-running rivers

🚭Nicotine products like vapes and oral nicotine pouches are all part of the same addictive products sold by the big tobacco industry to keep customers addicted to their products.

📞 If you or someone you care about is ready to quit tobacco/nicotine use, there are FREE resources available. Call 1-800-QUIT-NOW or visit https://t.co/OjY15R3tM0 for help making a plan to quit, tips on how to handle cravings and even nicotine patches or gum to help you make the transition.

⬆️ Have you noticed more ticks lately? You're not alone—reports have been increasing over the last ten years, particularly around Powell Butte Park. Fortunately, tick-borne diseases are extremely rare in the Pacific Northwest.

🌲If you're planning some time outside, keep an eye out in wooded areas and grassy properties leading into woods. Ticks in our area tend to wait in knee-high vegetation to latch on to an unsuspecting dog or human. Ticks are most active during spring and summer months but can be found all year.

✅ Once a tick bites, it can be difficult to remove, so it's important to do a quick check after your hike. If you're heading out during tick season, here are a few easy ways to keep them away:

👖Try to wear long sleeves and pants to cover up.
🧦Tuck your shirt into your pants and your pants into your socks
🦵Use a repellent with DEET, picaridin, or use a lemon & eucalyptus oil repellent on your boots and legs.
👣 Stick to the main trails and avoid tall grass when you can.
🦌It's also best to avoid narrow animal paths, like deer trails.
➡️ If you do find a tick attached to your skin, follow these steps to remove it.
