Anyone else out there seeing this #WildfireSmoke today? Woke up to a completely orange/red sun and a thick hazy fog over the truck. Smells like a campfire out here!

Just said that he had to go inside because it was so smokey I believe he's somewhere in Michigan.
Here's a picture I found on the internet. They must be having some fires up there.

The fires are in Ontario, put ontario wildfires in Google & see the info.
Have found out that some of the fires in Canada, WI & MN where started by people. Some have been arrested, others they are looking for.
And go to mackinacbridge.org to view cameras of the bridge that is in the smoke.
I live about an hour south of the Mackinaw Bridge.

A haze, but certainly not as bad as I see further north.

Look how bad things are at the Mackinac Bridge. https://www.mackinacbridge.org/fares-traffic/bridge-cam/

It's been pretty bad here in Central NY, too. Yesterday was even worse. The sky was a weird yellowish brown haze. You could taste the wood smoke. It's only warm here for a few months a year, so I hate having to keep the windows closed all the time. Hopefully, it will be gone soon. All outdoor activities have been canceled
(anything over 100 is bad)

I hope everyone is okay and stays safe! Wildfire smoke is the pits.

Yeah, I'm here in Michigan in the Thumb and it is really bad. This is the worst I've ever seen it.

I'm actually one of the meteorologists here in mid-Michigan and we've been tracking this for a few days. The smoke moved into the central Lower and the Thumb on Wednesday afternoon.

Fires are in Western Ontario and were ignited by lightning at the beginning of the week from thunderstorms in that region. High pressure previously over the Great Lakes (just brought us that heat wave) has moved south, so the NW wind on the northern periphery of the high pressure has lined up (im)perfectly, bascially putting this state as well as others in the region directly downwind of the fires.

Here in the Lower we'll get a small break in the smoke late Friday night and Saturday morning as the wind becomes SW, but by Saturday evening the Lower will be back under smoke again when the wind shifts back to the NW.

It's been pretty good around here this summer regarding smoke up until this situation. The last year I remember with heavier smoke here was 2023, but even still that doesn't really hold a candle to this bout of smoke. Those fires that year were mainly out in BC, Canada, so the smoke could disperse a little more before reaching the Great Lakes.

Sorry, no pics of the Mav in the smoke lol.

I should add too, I haven't bothered washing my Mav this week unfortunately because when it's parked outside at work, there will actually be small ash particles on it after sitting there for 8+ hours.

Wow that was great.
And now back to the News.
Thank You for the explanation and forecast.
