Philadelphia skies will be hazy Tuesday due to Canadian wildfire smoke, but no air quality alerts in effect

Smoke from the Canadian wildfires will be visible in the Philadelphia region on Tuesday, but no major impacts on air quality are expected. Over 100 "out of control" fires are burning across Canada, in particular the provinces of British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, which sit to the north of midwest and mountain states including Montana, North Dakota and Minnesota. The Canadian Interagency Fire Center says there are 10 new fires as of Tuesday morning. In the U.S., smoke has particularly impacted air quality in Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. In Minneapolis and St. Paul, an air quality alert was in effect for forecasted "unhealthy" air, while in other parts of the state, air quality was predicted to reach the "hazardous" level. How Philadelphia region will be impacted by Canada wildfires Winds are carrying some of that smoke to the eastern U.S. on Tuesday. Smoke in the Philadelphia area will mostly stay high in the atmosphere, and the air we breathe down on the ground should stay relatively clear. No air quality alerts are in effect at this time. The haze will start to appear Tuesday afternoon and you will probably notice the difference compared to a perfectly clear day — but the sun should still be visible. Remember that even if it seems a little less sunny than a clear day, the sun's UV rays can still make it to the surface. You should still use sun protection as normal if you're outdoors. This is a far different situation compared to 2023, when smoke from fires burning in Quebec descended down to the surface, greatly impacting air quality across the East Coast — and at one point, giving Philadelphia the worst air quality in the world. Map shows when wildfire smoke is thickest over Philadelphia CBS News Philadelphia This map from our morning newscasts shows the thickest smoke, represented by the redddish orange color, setting in around 4 p.m. or 5 p.m. before cycling out overnight. Areas like the Jersey Shore could see some lingering thicker smoke Wednesday morning, which might make for a brilliant sunrise. How can I monitor air quality near me? When air quality turns hazardous, local health authorities will issue alerts — typically the worst these get is a Code Orange, meaning the air is unhealthy for sensitive groups, like people with lung conditions. CBS News Philadelphia The air quality index ranges from green for good to maroon for hazardous. You can see the full scale in the image above. If an air quality alert is issued for smoke, it means the air contains a higher-than-normal measured concentration of particulate matter less than 2.5 microns, commonly abbreviated as PM2.5. PM2.5 is narrower in diameter than a human hair and due to its small size, can penetrate into the deepest parts of your lungs, with potential to induce inflammation or tissue damage. As of Tuesday morning, June 3, there are no air quality alerts in the Philadelphia region including Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware. You can see real-time air conditions on a map at

First quarter moon will grace the sky on June 2. How to catch a glimpse.

Half of the moon will be illuminated as it reaches its first quarter phase on Monday, June 2. The first quarter phase marks the quarter point on the moon's monthly journey, according to NASA. During this position, the moon's illuminated side is half-lit, according to the agency. A first-quarter moon is ideal for observing here on Earth, NASA says, because it rises in the afternoon — around noon — and is high above the horizon in the evening before setting around midnight. Here's what to know about the first quarter phase and how to best view the moon. The moon has both a day and night side, with the sun always illuminating half of the moon. The portion of the illuminated half changes as the moon travels through its orbit. First quarter is the third phase of the moon's eight lunar phases. The cycle repeats about every 29.5 days, according to NASA. During the first quarter phase, one half of the moon will appear illuminated by direct sunlight, per NASA. However, even though the moon is half-visible from Earth during first quarter, it's not actually a half moon. According to NASA, during first quarter, only half of the moon's illuminated half is visible on Earth. A full moon is technically a half moon, because the sun is illuminating the full day side of the moon during that phase, per NASA. According to NASA, the moon will reach first quarter, or 50% illuminated, just before 11 p.m. EST, in the Northern Hemisphere on June 2. The exact timing will differ based on location. On the East Coast, the moon is expected to be at first quarter around 11:40 p.m. EST, according to The next first quarter phase will be on July 2, according to NASA. The moon's first quarter phase will be visible here on Earth. For those looking to catch a glimpse, NASA recommends a set of binoculars or a telescope, which will highlight the moon's texture and terrain. However, bare eyes also work. With no tools on hand, NASA says to look carefully and give your eyes time plenty of time to adjust — what you can see will vary based on your eyesight. When eyeballing the moon, you'll mostly see areas of either white or gray. The gray patches, called lunar maria or seas, are solidified volcanic lavas, according to NASA. NASA has a daily viewing guide which highlights the lunar maria that you may be able to see from Earth. Melina Khan is a national trending reporter for USA TODAY.
