> Wildfire smoke prompts air quality concerns in NYC and Tri-State | Live updates

NEW YORK (WABC) -- All of New York State, including New York City, and parts of New Jersey are under an Air Quality Advisory due to the smoke from more than 100 wildfires burning in Canada. 

The Tri-State will see visible smoke and hazy skies across the state and spikes in smoke-related pollution.

Fine particle pollution from wildfire smoke can cause shortness of breath, coughing, dizziness or fatigue and aggravate heart and lung diseases and other chronic health issues.

Experts suggest reducing or eliminating outdoor activities, wearing a N95 mask aumaskhole.png if you have to be outside and keeping your indoor air cleaner by closing windows and running an air purifier or air conditioner.
