#Hazy sky to persist as Canadian #WildfireSmoke and #SaharanDust invade US

More smoke and dust are ahead for the northern, eastern and southern states into mid-June, as AccuWeather meteorologists continue to track Canadian wildfires and dust sweeping in from Africa.

By Bill Deger, AccuWeather senior meteorologist

Published Jun 5, 2025 11:10 AM EDT | Updated Jun 6, 2025

"The haze is here to stay. Rounds of smoke from hundreds of Canadian wildfires, as well as dust blowing off Sub-Saharan Africa, will continue to envelop portions of the United States into the summer, say AccuWeather meteorologists.

"Recent rounds of smoke blowing across the northern and eastern U.S. over the last week resulted in a hazy sky, poor air quality and vibrant sunrises and sunsets. While the smoke has mostly retreated back into Canada as of late this week, additional episodes are expected through the summer, with the first expected early next week.

"Meanwhile, the Saharan dust will result in similar effects in the South, mostly in Florida and areas surrounding the Gulf and southwestern Atlantic. A recent round of dust blowing off of Africa will also have the effect of putting a temporary lid on potential tropical development."

Happy #Sunday afternoon from the #Northland.

This should be a fine #weather day for the beginning of #meteorological #summer with #clear skies, light #winds, and #warm #temperatures.

However, #wildfire #smoke from Canada is bringing #hazy skies and deteriorating #airquality levels.

#wxtooter #wx #MNwx #WIwx #UPwx

The satellite and radar over the Northland at 2 p.m. on Sunday, June 1, 2025, shows very little cloud cover over the region with no precipitation. It does not show the smoke from wildfires burning in Canada that have flown south over the continental United States.

The wildfire smoke in the atmosphere over the western Great Lakes region during the early afternoon hours of June 1, 2025, shows heavy levels over the region, with some moderate levels as one progresses east into the Upper Peninsula and eastern Wisconsin. Air quality levels in the Northland are good for the moment, but they are forecasted to become poor by Sunday night and continue through Monday.

Temperatures in the Northland just before 2 p.m. on June 1, 2025, range from 62 to 81 degrees. There are a few pockets in the Twin Ports and North Shore regions where temperatures are in the 60s.

Wind speeds in the Northland just before 2 p.m. on June 1, 2025, range from 5 to 8 mph. Wind direction is primarily from the south and southwest, with a light lake breeze near Lake Superior.

NORTHLAND FORECAST FOR MAY 30, 2025:

#Wildfire #smoke from Manitoba will continue to flow through the #Northland Thursday night and Friday, creating unhealthy #airquality levels.

Skies will be #hazy but partly #cloudy with only a few pop-up #showers possible Friday afternoon.

#Temperatures will remain #warm with lows in the 50s, and highs in the upper 70s and 80s.

WILDFIRE SMOKE CONCERNS CONTINUE:

The northwest #breeze will keep bringing #wildfire #smoke from #Manitoba through the #Northland tonight and Friday.

Expect poor #airquality levels and #hazy skies, making it tough to #breath for some when outdoor.

Overall, take it a bit easy when outside.

#wxtooter #weather #wx #MNwx #UPwx #WIwx

Air quality levels over the Northland just before 5 p.m. Thursday, May 29, 2025, shows unhealthy levels in the Arrowhead and Boundary Waters regions, with moderate levels covering most of the rest of the region. These numbers are courtesy of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency.

An Air Quality Alert is in effect for Carlton, Cook, Lake, and St. Louis counties through 6 p.m. Friday, May 30, 2025, for possible unhealthy levels due to wildfire smoke coming through this region from Canada. An additional Air Quality Alert will be in effect for western Upper Peninsula for Friday, along with one for northwest Wisconsin for Friday and Friday night.

The main flow for wildfire smoke coming from near Winnipeg continues to be southeast into the Northland thanks to a northwest breeze. The highest concentration of smoke Thursday night and Friday morning will be over the Arrowhead and Upper Peninsula regions.

Eventually, this highest concentration will shift more west and cover other parts of the Northland throughout the day Friday, which will include the Twin Ports, northwest Wisconsin, and the Iron Range, as wind direction slowly shifts to the north as a cold front passes through the region. A decreasing wind speed Friday night and shift in direction to the south throughout the weekend will allow the smoke to dissipate by early next week.

Happy #Thursday afternoon from the #Northland!

It is #summer-like #heat across the entire region, with some more isolated pop-up #showers this afternoon.

A northerly #wind direction is bringing #wildfire smoke from Canada. It will be #hazy and difficult for some to breath through Friday.

#wxtooter #weather #wx #MNwx #WIwx #UPwx

The satellite and radar over the Northland at 1:30 p.m. on Thursday, May 29, 2025, shows clear skies for most locations. A line of clouds has formed along the North Shore, with some pop-up isolated showers in the I-35 corridor and northwest Wisconsin. They are moving to the south.

Temperatures in the Northland just after 1 p.m. on May 29, 2025, range from 68 to 82 degrees Fahrenheit.

Wind speeds in the Northland just after 1 p.m. on May 29, 2025, range from calm to 14 mph. Wind direction is primarily from the north and northwest.

An Air Quality Alert remains in effect for Carlton, Cook, Lake, and St. Louis counties through 6 p.m. Friday, May 30, 2025, as wildfire smoke from Manitoba are pushed south into the Northland. An additional Air Quality Alert is in effect for Gogebic and Ontonagon counties for Friday, May 30, 2025, for the same wildfire smoke. Air quality levels will be degraded low enough to make it difficult for some people to breath when outdoors, especially those with pre-existing conditions and certain age groups.

NORTHLAND FORECAST FOR MAY 29, 2025:

After a #dry Wednesday night with very light #winds and lows in the 40s, a shift in #wind direction to the northwest Thursday will allow #wildfire #smoke from Manitoba to return to the #Northland. Expect #hazy skies and unhealthy #airquality levels as more isolated #showers pop-up in the afternoon. High #temperatures will #warm to the 70s for most locations.

WILDFIRE SMOKE RETURNS:

Thanks to a shift in #wind direction, the #Northland will see a couple big bursts of #wildfire #smoke from #fires burning near #Winnipeg over the next two days.

Skies will be #hazy as #air quality levels will become #unhealthy for most people when you are outside.

Take it easy when going about your day.

#wxtooter #weather #wx #MNwx #WIwx #UPwx

A view of wildfire smoke in the atmosphere over the northern continental United States and central Canada as of the late afternoon of May 28, 2025, shows a heavy concentration north and northeast of a cluster of fires east of Winnipeg. The Northland has only seen a light impact from this smoke the past several days...

A shift in wind direction from the east to the northwest by Thursday morning will change the impact of wildfire smoke from the fires burning in southeast Manitoba. A model run for surface smoke clearly shows a large concentration of it moving southeast into parts of the Northland by noon Thursday. It will remain heavy throughout Thursday, with a second burst of heavy concentration coming through Friday.

An Air Quality Alert has been issued for Carlton, Cook, Lake, and St. Louis counties for Thursday, May 29, 2025, and Friday, May 30, 2025. Air quality levels are expected to be unhealthy for most people throughout these two days. That means you could experience breathing issues when outside, especially if you have pre-existing health concerns or doing strenuous activities. This alert area could expand to cover more counties for Friday.

Happy #Sunday afternoon from the #Northland!

It's a #warmer day as we progress through this #MemorialDay holiday weekend. More daytime heating #clouds and a few #showers are in the region, but not as many as Saturday.

It is #hazy as #wildfire #smoke from Manitoba flows south.

#wxtooter #weather #wx #MNwx #WIwx #UPwx

The satellite and radar over the Northland at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, May 25, 2025, shows daytime heating cumulus clouds forming across the region, with the clearest skies along the South Shore, North Shore, and Rainy River Basin regions. A few showers are forming in the Arrowhead, I-35 corridor, and Hayward regions, but it's unknown from just the radar if the showers are reaching the ground.

Temperatures in the Northland just after 1 p.m. on May 25, 2025, range from 54 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit. The 50s and low 60s are being observed along Lake Superior.

Wind speeds in the Northland just after 1 p.m. on May 25, 2025, range from calm to 13 mph. Wind direction is primarily from the north and northeast.

Wildfire smoke levels across the Northland as of the early afternoon of May 25, 2025, are moderate for most locations, with heavy smoke in the International Falls area, and light in the Arrowhead, and most of northwest Wisconsin. This smoke is from wildfires burning northeast of Winnipeg, with a northerly flow in the atmosphere pushing it across the U.S./Canadian border. Air quality levels are at good levels, meaning the smoke is remaining elevated in the atmosphere and not blowing down to the surface.
