Canadian wildfire smoke causes hazy skies in New Jersey and New York City, affecting air quality and expected to persist for several days.
Wildfire smoke from Canadian fires has caused hazy skies in parts of New Jersey and New York City, with the National Weather Service reporting light smoke visible in NYC. While no significant health threats are expected, air quality may be affected, and the smoke is likely to persist for several days due to a northwest wind transporting it to the tri-state area. This year's hazy skies are not as severe as last summer's, with the possibility of rain reducing its visibility.
