# Wildfire Smoke Creates Orange Haze Across Ontario and Northern United States

An orange haze resulting from Canadian wildfires is visible across Ontario and parts of the northern United States. The discoloration is caused by smoke from active fires burning across Canada, which is being carried across borders by atmospheric conditions.

According to the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre, there are currently 838 wildfires actively burning across the country. This significant number of simultaneous fires is producing substantial amounts of smoke that has spread to populated areas in Ontario and northern U.S. regions, creating visible air quality effects across the broader region.
