Surface smoke from Canadian wildfires, in addition to causing very poor air quality, will continue to reduce visibility down to 3/4 of a a mile in some spots. Motorists are advised to allow for extra space between them and the vehicle in front of them. The smoke are expected to begin gradually improving through the afternoon and evening hours.
Instructions:
