I have no idea how accurate www.firesmoke.ca is but let’s check. It’s predicting some of worst smoke will leave the Toronto and Cleveland area and drift out to sea on the prevailing winds, passing through Philliy Friday afternoon. Let us know if that comes to be. Good luck.

The air is about normal here today... Now we need the rain.
Where I live in eastern WV, we've had less than .48" in the month of May. Grass is burnt brown. Will take a lot of soaking rain to get back to normal.
Is that like " the girl with far away eyes" ?
Is this how Philly looked at 6:00PM today.
Some how living coastal NH we missed out on it. It’s south and also west of us but winds not putting it here. A little last week but not the soup I saw in US eastern cities.
Its a sure thing the zombies on Kensington street , Philly never even noticed.

Judging from the local weather, I'd say www.firesmoke.ca was pretty accurate.

No doubt they complained how bad it was for their health before and after they shot up
If I recall correctly, this was a big hit in late 1977. Tempus fugit ...
Nice neighbors...
It's much better today....Wednesday was the worst...it actually stung my throat.
PS: My friend who follows this stuff blames poor forest management just like in California. I hope some people (in both California and Canada) are held accountable.

We got that thunder buster last night and only like 15 minutes of rain. But that smoke must be imbedded in the roof, trees and everything else as it gassed out the house for a few hours.
I thought rain may do that and it did. Much better today.
Central Florida. I went outside this morning and the haze is thick here and and it reeks of wood smoke. We had seen some smoke from the Canadian fires but I couldn't believe that it was this bad even after the winds changed and started blowing that smoke out into the Atlantic.
I checked online and found out that there is 5,000+ acres "proscribed burn" somewhere the Lake/Seminole county area. They must be burning off another huge wooded area in order to ready it for more subdivisions

BIL lives in Milton, Ontario and he says it's difficult being outside for more than a 10 min. Never seen anything like it.

In Oxford PA now.
The smell is so bad it gives you instant asthma. No haze but really burnt smelling air.
Not good. The party continues
