Summary
New Jersey’s summer just got derailed by wildfire smoke drifting in from Canada and Minnesota, forcing the shutdown of all four public pools in Newark for a second straight day—and it’s not just Newark. Cities like Teaneck, Summit, and Hanover are also closing pools and urging outdoor caution, even as state parks issue warnings. Officials are watching air quality reports closely, hoping for a weather shift this weekend, while handing out masks in Newark for extra protection. With kids eager for swim lessons and sun-soaked fun, everyone’s waiting for the haze to lift so summer can get back on track—safety first, even when the sun’s shining.
