Changes in weather and changes in temperature are often reported by people living with asthma as triggers. Triggers are things that can set off your asthma symptoms. We can’t always avoid these events, but we can try to reduce their impact.   

Types of weather and air quality events that can trigger asthma include:

Cold Weather	Extreme Heat	Thunderstorms
Seasonal Pollen	Wood Smoke	Dust Storms

Asthma Educators can answer your asthma questions

If you have more questions about the effects of extreme weather on your asthma, contact Asthma Australia for support and information on 1800 ASTHMA (1800 278 462) or book a call for a time that suits you.
