Weather Blog: Why hazy skies across Northwest Arkansas?
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) — May 31 was a beautiful sunny day, but the sky was not blue. Here's why. You may have seen that the sky appeared washed out and hazy. This unusual appearance was caused by smoke from the Canadian wildfires, which had drifted into our region. As seen below, the smoke across our area was quite dense: The smoke originated from wildfires that are ongoing across Central Canada. The map below shows active fires in the Manitoba Region: The upper level flow is out of the North Northwest, which is why the smoke is reaching our area. A snapshot of the visible satellite from earlier this afternoon can be seen below: What other effects is the smoke having on us besides the haze? You might be wondering about the air quality. Check out the stats below: Earlier Saturday evening, air quality across Northwest Arkansas briefly dipped to 'Moderate' levels. By 9 p.m., conditions had improved back to 'Good.' The more hazardous air remains well north, across the Northern Plains. Looking ahead, changes in the jet stream are encouraging. Upper-level high pressure will begin moving in Sunday and will sit directly over our area by Monday, helping to keep thicker wildfire smoke to our east. By Tuesday, a southwest flow returns, clearing out any remaining smoke but also ushering in a more active weather pattern with multiple chances for rain and thunderstorms.
