New York City is under an air quality health advisory Tuesday as smoke from wildfires in Canada is sweeping through the area — blocking out the sun and creating hazy skies across town.
Smoke from the wildfires, which have been burning across a swath of eastern Canada stretching through Ontario and Quebec, has been wafting southward over the eastern United States. It not only contributes to overcast skies, but the smoke also contains fine particulate matter that may aggravate symptoms of those with respiratory conditions such as asthma, chronic bronchitis or COPD.
