Western wildfires, from states as far as Oregon, have brought hazy orange skies, across the country to Connecticut, Tuesday. The skies are expected to clear up Wednesday afternoon as much of the state will see severe thunderstorms and potential hail.
Why are the skies hazy?
Believe it or not, smoke from wildfires out west have traveled all the way to Connecticut.
“I think they’ve been citing Oregon as the origin, but just the way the jet stream has been set up, it’s been able to carry smoke from out that far west, into Northern Canada, down through the Great Lakes and eventually all the way out here in Northeastern United States, including Southern New England,” Rob Megnia from the National Weather Service said.
