...HAZY SKIES DUE TO CANADIAN FOREST FIRES...

THE HAZY SUNSHINE OVER SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN IS DUE
TO A LARGE PART...FROM SMOKE ALOFT FROM FAR AWAY CANADIAN FOREST
FIRES. MOST OF THE FIRES ARE BURNING IN ALBERTA AND NORTHERN
SASKATCHEWAN. THIS SMOKE OFTEN GETS TRAPPED IN STABLE LAYERS
ALOFT...AND IS TRANSPORTED LONG DISTANCES...TAKING A DAY OR TWO TO
REACH WISCONSIN.

SATELLITE IMAGES FRIDAY MORNING...SHOW THE SMOKE ALOFT COVERS MUCH
OF THE UPPER MIDWEST...FROM THE LAKE SUPERIOR REGION...TO
WISCONSIN...MINNESOTA...IOWA...TO SOUTH CENTRAL ILLINOIS AND
NORTHEAST MISSOURI.
