The Apocalyptic Orange Haze over New York City: A Time-Lapse Perspective.

The New York Department of Environmental Conservation and the State Department of Health issued another air quality health advisory for all of New York on Thursday, with the exception of Adirondacks, due to the Canadian wildfires. The agencies expected air quality to remain at “unhealthy” levels for the New York City Metro area, Long Island, Eastern Lake Ontario, and Central and Western New York through Thursday. New York state officials recommended people limit their time outdoors to reduce their exposure to the smoke and keep windows to homes and buildings closed. Residents are also being urged to avoid strenuous outdoor activities and any prolonged exposure to the air outdoors. People in New York City can obtain the free N95 face masks being offered by the government at various locations.
