TL;DR Summary

A "Code Red" air quality alert is in effect in Richmond, Virginia due to haze from Canadian wildfires, which will continue to increase into the evening. The poor air quality is unhealthy for all people, so it is advised to limit time outdoors. Another air quality alert is likely for tomorrow. Thunderstorms have exited eastern VA, and an isolated shower or storm is still possible through this evening. The weekend is looking mostly dry with highs in the low/mid 80s.
