While air quality has improved slightly on Sunday afternoon,
the smoke from wildfires located north of the Canadian border
will likely lead to a return to poor air quality in some locations
tonight into Monday. As winds turn southerly by Tuesday, there
should be a greater improvement to visibility and air quality.

Due to the poor air quality, sensitive groups, such as people
with lung disease (including asthma), heart disease, and children
and older adults, should avoid prolonged or heavy exertion. The
general public should also limit prolonged or heavy exertion.
