Sydney is blanketed in thick smoke and air quality levels smashed through the hazardous threshold as people in Australia's largest city again wake to a health risk.

Dr Richard Broome, from NSW Health, said people with respiratory conditions should avoid going outdoors.While smoke has been near-permanent fixture in Sydney this bushfire season, people took to social media today to lament the"worst" air quality they had seen."Woke up this morning to the worst smoke haze I have ever seen in our local area," Samantha Waterfield in Belmont North said.

"Definitely the worst the conditions on the Northern Beaches have been. I've had no voice for three days from the smoke, I can't imagine how people living closer are coping," Kelly Owens said on Twitter.But that is also when the extreme heat will hit, with temperatures forecast to reach 42 degrees Celsius in some western suburbs.The conditions mean firefighters are on high alert around the state today.

Y'know, this really doesn't seem to be getting the attention it should. The east coast is on fire, who gives a flying f about religious discrimination bills right now? C'MON!

As long as the fearless leaders of the Liberal Party tell us that this is not extraordinary, it’s all good, I guess

And where is the liar from the shire Scomo - Jacinda can look after NZ , she doesn’t need you tool

Naturally TheirABC won't tell you its happened before. Yes that's right, before we had a fake 'climate emergency.'

Worst I’ve ever seen ..definitely from me too sydneysmoke

It would be great to hear an objective story on these fires as to why they are so bad. I hear climate change I hear no back burning. Now much carbon is currently being released? How does this compare to say sydneys emissions on a daily basis?

It’s ironic that the two states who voted the liberals in (QLD & NSW) are now suffocating under this corrupt federal government - you reap what you sow people. Meanwhile your premier has ‘save a farmer’ T-shirt’s at the ready 😂 and your PM is praying and chanting like a moron

a bit like beijing during peak hour, our pollies are going in hard trying to outdo the ccp

Please raise your voice and call for climateaction from our government. Stop AngusTaylorMP from using expired credits to try justify our ongoing emissions. Call out ScottMorrisonMP to take charge and turn Australia green! Please sign

the PMO advises that the correct term for this is 'freedom air' or 'economic development gas'.

Hazardous smoke lol ..... no one sane is buying the climate fear . My advice would be machine gun toaters at the local supermarket or perhaps medical clinics , supermarkets & kinders ...like the airport. Try that .

Must been born after we stopped marking “Commonwealth Day” with bonfires and fireworks.

Sadly it was bound to happen after years of Green policies of no winter back burning & firebug/Lefties with a political agenda 😪🤦‍♂️just awfully sad.

Sentencing delay after Sydney dance school rapist diagnosed with cancerA court is told convicted sex offender Anthony Sampieri has been diagnosed with liver cancer and will now be sentenced for the rape of a seven-year-old girl next year. Something very very wrong here..he can’t be sentanced just yet for such a serious disgusting crime of child rape because he has cancer. Am I missing something here? Let him rot in jail with no treatment Interesting timing that, don’t you think? Stinks.
