Wild Fire Smoke Causes Unhealthy Air Quality In DMV

Over a two-day period, the air quality in D.C. and Maryland has increasingly gotten worse. Today, environmental protection agencies have issued a Code Red Alert. The region’s air quality is negatively affected by wildfires in New Jersey, and Nova Scotia, Canada, according to various news outlets. Wildfire smoke is also affecting New York and South Carolina. In DC and Maryland, it is believed that the smog should thin out by Saturday. DC has canceled all outside activities for its school system. Prince George’s County has made no such announcement.
