Alot of FIRES in CA, my city was cloudy and sun seemed red, is this dangerous to health?

Question:

not in my city. The fires were somewhere in the back of the mountains, my city is n coast. It's funny cause i thought it was just a cloudy day but it's not, i think all that clouds are actually smoke. And then we had ash falling in all things yesterday and still today alittle. Is this healthy to just go unprotected

Answers:
Unfortunately, we are having a Santana condition. It isn't a good idea to do strenuous outdoor activity until the air clears but we get this every year at this time and most people get through without too much problem.

To the best of my knowledge, wood smoke may be an irritant (and can certainly choke you if it's thick enough), but it's not toxic.
