Wildfire smoke causing poor air quality in New England and Ontario.

The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services issued an air quality action day for parts of the state on Sunday due to expected smoky conditions caused by winds bringing waves of smoke from eastern Canada. The smoke can cause health problems for sensitive individuals, and NHDES recommended limiting time outdoors and strenuous activities. Air quality is expected to improve on Monday when winds are expected to shift and send the smoke away from New Hampshire.

Wildfire smoke clears in Northeastern cities, but returns to NYC over the weekend.

A light haze from the Canadian wildfires is expected to return to the New York City metropolitan area on Saturday evening and into Sunday, but it is expected to be less extreme than earlier in the week. The haziness will vary between locations, with Long Island expected to see the worst conditions. Air quality conditions were moderate as of 7 p.m. Saturday, but people are encouraged to monitor conditions throughout the weekend.
