Smoke from numerous wildfires in Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia is spreading across North America. This movement of smoke will result in hazy skies over the eastern regions. It will also degrade air quality in the Northwest and parts of the Plains.
Wildfires remain uncontained in these areas, contributing to the widespread smoke. As air currents carry the smoke, regions as far as 2,500 miles away will experience its effects.
This situation highlights the ongoing challenges presented by wildfire seasons and their impact on air quality and visibility across vast distances.
