Goulburn is currently battling the poorest air quality in NSW, though, with a rating of 2592.
Bathurst is sitting at 369.
The air quality in Orange is considered hazardous, and is well above the 200 mark used to indicate hazardous air quality on the NSW Planning Industry and Environment website.
The NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment (DPIE) website is warning people to take care.
"People with heart or lung disease, older adults and children should avoid exercising outdoors," the DPIE alert states.
"Everyone else should avoid prolonged or heavy exertion.
"If you have symptoms rest and use your reliever medication. If symptoms persists seek medical advice."
