It’s frightening how something you can see from miles away can be so invasive once it hits your lungs. I remember a summer where the sky turned that eerie orange color—it felt like living in a movie, but the cough just wouldn't go away for weeks. Does anyone know if those standard home air filters actually catch the smallest particles, or do we need the heavy-duty ones?

That part about the smoke hitting nearly every system in the body is heavy—it's like a debuff you can't shake. Definitely makes me want to double-check my air filters today. What’s your go-to move for keeping the air clean inside when the smoke rolls in?
