Air pollution in New York City today is at dangerous levels due to the fires in Canada. I went on my usual early evening walk, & the view was alarming. Very low visibility, & a pronounced smell of smoke.

The first picture is the view of the George Washington Bridge around 6pm the other day. The second picture is how it looked today.
