These clear blue skies won't last long unfortunately. Some models have that band of smoke moving north into our area by the afternoon whats causing it to move north when the winds are coming from the NW?

Different winds at different heights. The smoke is mostly elevated, between 300-400mb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't. I wonder if people are even aware of it though. It should be mentioned in forecasts but most of the time it gets disregarded as just "haze" which isn't truly accurate. It's a shame that most outlets don't even mention the smoke at all. People who use weather apps probably think tomorrow will be mostly sunny when it'll probably be more gray with all the smoke. I can see the majority of this upcoming week being ruined with smoke yet the forecasts will have people expecting blue skies 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only other time I remember experiencing smoke before the last few years was back in summer 2002 from the fires in Quebec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much light does it block though? We can still see the stars through haze and smoke as long as it's not completely obnoxious like what we had in June 2023.
