Summary
Wildfire smoke has turned Minnesota’s skies into a hazardous haze, smashing air quality records with pollution levels soaring eighty-two times higher than previous highs. Cities from Duluth to St. Michael recorded readings over 500 micrograms per cubic meter, with Virginia hitting a staggering 1,100 — a grim reminder of how distant fires choke our air. Alerts remain in effect as flames, including those near the Boundary Waters, could burn until snowfall arrives later this year.
