air quality

Air quality could drop to the unhealthy to very unhealthy range.

Canadian wildfires are expected to drop air quality across the region Friday.

Holloway will be talking about how science supports air quality management and how wildfire smoke is changing that at May’s Science on Tap Minocqua.

Dozens of wildfires burning hundreds of thousands of acres are currently burning out west in both the U.S. and Canada.The last few summers brought smoke from fires just like them to the Northwoods, dropping air quality to some of the worst levels seen in the region in years.

The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources has issued an Air Quality Advisory for northern Wisconsin

Air quality alerts have resurfaced in Wisconsin, with some areas experiencing the smoky air from Canadian wildfires

Wildfire smoke originating from Canada will move into Wisconsin throughout the day Thursday.Air quality is expected to range from the UNHEALTHY FOR SENSITIVE GROUPS (USG) level to the UNHEALTHY level.

A major lakes study in the Northwoods will be used as a baseline for research in the decades to come.Last year, 250 lakes across northern Wisconsin, Michigan, and Minnesota were sampled.WXPR’s Katie Thoresen spoke with some of the scientists involved about what this project will mean for air and water quality in the Northwoods.
