Wildfire smoke tries to stay away until later tomorrow afternoon; air quality looks fine
We’re getting a break in wildfire smoke and its influence on our air quality — at least through tomorrow. We shouldn’t take for granted that wildfires still erupting in various places around the continent won’t send smoke back our way. For now, near-surface smoke is expected to remain minimal, helping our air quality remain at or better than “Yellow.”
Near-surface smoke is expected to remain out of the region in the near term, but it may start creeping back in tomorrow night, especially west of town. Still, no major plume with air quality implications is expected at this time.Even if we see wildfire smoke from the southern United States, Mexico, Ontario and Quebec make it back into our region, it should remain elevated above the surface for the most part.
