Canadian wildfire smoke is creating dangerous air quality conditions in parts of the U.S.

Wildfires burning in Canada continue to create poor air quality conditions in the U.S. as the smoke makes its way south.

Air quality alerts have been issued in 13 states, and the worst air quality in the U.S. on Wednesday was in New York from Syracuse to Binghamton.

If the skies have a hazy look to them Monday, it'll be for a similar reason to what Missouri and Illinois have been dealing with over the past few weeks, but this time the wildfire smoke is originating from a brand new place.

If you happen to have a health situation where you have sensitive lungs, you need to know that air quality in many parts of Missouri and Illinois could be very problematic Wednesday.
