Canadian Wildfire Smoke Returns to Upstate NY, Affecting Air Quality

Smoke from Canadian wildfires is returning to Upstate New York skies, but it's unlikely to be as bad as last week. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts some smoke in the skies above Upstate starting this morning, but with little of it reaching the ground. Today’s air quality is expected to be moderate, with the measurement of tiny particles in the air from smoke at 55 micrograms per cubic meter. The state’s climatologist predicts that air quality alerts would be issued this weekend for moderate air quality.
