Hazardous smoke from Canada's historic wildfires8 U.S.C 2257an unpredictable and complex phenomenon, but precisely what's happening doesn't have to be a mystery. You can track it in real time if you know where to look.
Wildfires can be normal and healthy parts of an ecosystem, but today's fires can burn into unnatural infernos, producing unhealthy smoke that adversely impacts people's health hundreds of miles away. Different regions, at different times of year, will have a variety of influences stoking flames. Yet the continually warming atmosphere, which turns vegetation into profoundly parched fuel, is often a significant contributor in extreme fires, as are overgrown and mismanaged forests, invasive plants, and other factors.
A good provider of real-time updates about the smoke in the northeastern U.S. is the Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere at Colorado State University in conjunction with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

There's no better illustration of the sheer drama of this event than the New York Harbor Ship Cam located at Brooklyn's Waterfront Museum. Locals will know this view well, and it won't be lost on them that this camera usually scans a scenic vista, including the Statue of Liberty. At the time this was being written, all that was visible was orange haze and sepia-tinted ocean waves. It's almost pretty, but so, so bleak.
