I would stay inside the house. Health Officials say to
Run an air conditioner, if you have one.
This is just an idea........I don't really know.
My idea is that if there is moisture in the air, it will help to collect the smoke particles. Moisture will also do you well to breathe due to bronchitis.
run a vaporizer in a smaller room where you can close the door ....... or boil a huge pot of water on the stove..........
......... go into the bathroom and close the door (if no children in house stop-up the tub) and run hot water to turn the air steamy. Just stay closed-up in such a room for long periods of time until the air begins to clear.
A word of advice -- call your local Dr. or ER to ask concerning the smoky air and your bronchitis & sore throat. Do as they recommend.

Sorry to hear that, I would recommend an air purifier & a humidifier, definately. Try to avoid the outside air for now. You should report this to a doctor also, just in case.
Also drink some hot, soothing tea w/ honey & lemon and don't forget the throat lozenges...

A humidifier maybe? It could help get the air fresher in the house... Suck on some lozenges.

i'm incredibly useful its against state county and local policies to offload any form of "ash" interior the ecosystem, because it could reason undue rigidity to the organic international and disrupt the organic settings. of direction, in line with danger in case you record for a permit and pay the mandatory expenses you are going to be waiting to do it.
