Parts of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and other states were blanketed in smoke and an eerie orange glow after smoke from Canadian wildfires seeped into the U.S. The air quality was so bad in some areas it prompted advisories, with officials urging people to limit time outside and to wear masks. Some schools were canceled and outdoor events were postponed – here's what else was impacted by the smoke.
Some schools were closed Thursday after the wildfire smoke wreaked havoc on the Tri-State area Wednesday. New Jersey's Newark Public Schools were closed, as were surrounding school districts like Elizabeth and schools in New York towns such as Long Beach and Yonkers.
