## Resource

Wildfire smoke from Canada blanketed west Michigan, turning skies hazy and air quality hazardous—forcing cancellations, mask-wearing, and a major hit to summer plans. Beaches, parks, and even a concert at Frederik Meijer Gardens were sidelined as residents scrambled to stay safe. Utilities like Consumers Energy stepped up to protect workers amid heat and smoke, while some events, like the Warner Vineyards concert, pressed on. With poor air quality forecasted to linger, everyone’s just waiting for the haze to lift—until then, life’s on hold.
