How the Canadian wildfire smoke looks in Pa., N.J., Del.
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Across the region, iconic sights were obscured by smoke from wildfires burning in Canada that blew south into the Lehigh Valley, Philadelphia and the surrounding counties in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware.
Late Wednesday morning there was a lull in the smoke, but more is expected to blow our way again and these winds will likely continue through the week.
At the Philadelphia Museum of Art on Wednesday morning, a runner who came all the way from Sacramento, California, was surprised at the air quality.
"I was surprised when I smelled this fire in the air, and these conditions for running aren't ideal," Charles Amey said. "I was definitely surprised, I feel like it's just like California … we get a lot of wildfires coming down. This is coming from Canada? Pretty eerily similar."
Overnight, the skylines in Philadelphia and Camden were tough to see.
And the moon appeared red.
