Smoke from numerous wildfires in Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia is spreading across North America. This is affecting air quality in the United States and parts of Canada.
The smoke is traveling over a distance of approximately 2,500 miles. It reaches regions including the Plains, Midwest, and East Coast.
Residents in the Northwest and certain areas of the Plains may experience notably poor air quality. People in these regions should take necessary precautions, such as staying indoors and using air purifiers when possible.
The visible haze in the sky serves as a reminder of the ongoing fires and their far-reaching effects.
