The bad air that practically suffocated the Utah skyline Friday has created air pollution levels as bad as the state's winter inversion levels, according to one doctor.

Dr Rob Paine, a pulmonologist with University of Utah Health Care, called the smoky air a "very intense period of pollution," one he hopes will be short-lived.

"There is a great deal of exposure," said Paine.

The exposure Paine describes is more dangerous than what residents would experience in wintertime, and the chemicals in the wildfire smoke differ from man-made air pollutants.

Paine said the pollutant particles are smaller in the smoke, making them go deeper into lungs and remain there longer.
