## Resource

Smoke from over 800 raging Canadian wildfires is blanketing the Midwest and Northeast, with dangerous air quality hitting record lows in cities like Detroit and Minneapolis. Wind is pushing the haze southeast, affecting states from Minnesota to New York, with forecasts warning it could even reach Washington D.C. The fine particles in the smoke are triggering breathing issues, especially for kids and those with heart or lung conditions. Experts urge everyone to stay indoors, seal windows, use air purifiers, and wear N95 masks if outside—avoiding exercise and minimizing exposure remains key as the fires continue to burn.
