GMA’s Deborah Roberts shares terrifying new photo of ‘dangerous’ view from her office window amid wildfire crisis

GOOD Morning America personality Deborah Roberts has provided her perspective on the latest environmental catastrophe.

Deborah recently revealed what living conditions are now like for New Yorkers as wildfires that rage in Canada alter the air quality in the Big Apple.

The 62-year-old news anchor captured a snap of the foggy dark-tinted New York atmosphere from the vantage point of her GMA office window.

The city's sky was super cloudy, and the window panes of Deborah's office appeared to look dingy as if they were unclean.

Elaborated in the TV host's caption was the damaging impact of the fires and the precautions that residents have to take to preserve their health.

"The view from my office window today. And no they don’t need cleaning! (Well, actually they do, but…)," Deborah wrote.

"This is the heavy, noxious haze drifting down from Quebec.

"NY authorities have issued an air alert, warning us all to avoid the outdoors and anyone with compromised respiratory issues to stay inside or wear masks. CraY times! #air #pollution."

Fans congregated in her comment section, sending their prayers and providing their anecdotal evidence on the situation.

"Praying it passes quickly! So sorry for everyone in the northeast!," one fan commented.

Another added: "We had 30 days of this type of air here in California when the wildfires were going on.

"It felt apocalyptic on days that it was so bad. Sorry you are experiencing this."

Someone else insisted: "Take care of yourself …we need your calming spirit during these crazy times."

SEEING RED

Photos have flooded social media of an orange sky over several major landmarks, such as the iconic city skyline, The U.S. Sun reported Wednesday.

An Air Quality Health Advisory has been put into effect in several regions as a result, including Long Island, New York City metro, Upper and Lower Hudson Valley, the Adirondacks, Eastern Lake Ontario, and Central New York.

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation is calling for all residents, especially active children, adults, and those with respiratory issues such as asthma or long Covid, to limit their time outdoors and refrain from physical activity.

The suffocating haze is the result of smoke from more than 400 wildfires in Canada which have been moving into the US since last month but hasn't been noticeable until recently.

The most recent fires have been burning near Quebec for the last few days.

"If you're a New Yorker with heart or breathing issues, be careful when you're outdoors today," tweeted New York City Mayor Eric Adams.

"Smoke from wildfires in Canada is impacting our city's air, so an Air Quality Health Advisory has been issued.

"Try to limit your outdoor activities today to the absolute necessities."

TREAD LIGHTLY

Governor Kathy Hochul and NYSDEC issued an update on the impact of the Canadian wildfires on the state's air quality.

"When many New Yorkers walked outside today, the hazy skies caused by wildfire smoke were hard to miss," said Hochul.

"New York State experts are monitoring our air quality every day to ensure New Yorkers have the latest information about current air quality in their communities and what they can do to protect themselves.

"I encourage New Yorkers, especially those sensitive to air quality, to take appropriate steps to help limit risk of exposure."

The smoke thickened late Tuesday afternoon, making it difficult to see New Jersey across the Hudson River and even making the sun look like a ghoulish, red orb.

If residents have to be outside, they're being urged to wear N95 or KN95 masks as surgical or cloth masks that were the standard during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic won't do much to filter out air pollution.

Several sporting events in the city have also been canceled or rescheduled to a later date.

The New York Yankees were set to face the Chicago White Sox in the Bronx but a statement from the team's official Twitter announced that the game was rescheduled.

"The game will be made up tomorrow, Thursday, June 8 as the first game of a single-admission doubleheader, which will begin at 4:05 p.m. The second game will start no earlier than 7:05 p.m.

"If the first game ends later than 6:35 p.m., Game 2 would start approximately 30 minutes after the end of Game 1."

The statement goes on to say that tickets for Wednesday's game won't be valid for Thursday's "single-admission doubleheader."

Elsewhere, the Philadelphia Phillies' game against the Detroit Tigers has also been postponed due to the poor air quality.

The Phillies stated on Twitter that "The game will be made up on Thursday, June 8, at 6:05 p.m."

"I have literally been coughing all day long," wrote one person on Twitter. "The air in NYC is no joke right now."

"Solidarity with all the nyc dog owners trying to explain to a dog that we can’t go to the park tonight because the air is filled with smoke from Canada," wrote another person.

"I’ve lived in New York State my entire life and it’s never been YELLOW outside," wrote a third person.

"I’ve lived in NYC for over a decade and outside never looked like the Valencia filter. So yes, we’re sort of talking about the dangerous poison air a lot right now."
