Yes, the haze in the sky is from the Canadian wildfires. How did it get here?
The wildfires that are ongoing in Canada are truly thousands of miles away from Southeast Georgia and Northeast Florida.
This is why the worst of the smoke has been closer to the fires, in cities like Chicago and New York.The wildfire smoke has been lifted up into the atmosphere, and the jet stream helps push it around.For the past several days, the jet stream has been buckled to the southeast. This buckling allowed the smoke to be transported into our area.The good news is, by the smoke plumes make it into our area, it’s not nearly as serious as in northern cities.
It should be noted that some air quality sites in the region have found levels to be unhealthy for sensitive groups, so certain individuals may want to limit time outdoors.The haze and smoke are expected to mix out and exit the area over the next 1-2 days. The core of the smoke will begin to lift northeastward toward the Northeast and the Atlantic Ocean late Wednesday and Thursday.It is possible additional plumes may drift southward toward the area, as the wildfires in Canada remain intense.
So, the smoke from Canada has moved into the area. But it looks to be short-lived and should exit the region by late week.
