• Smoke from forest fires in northeastern Ontario and Quebec is again moving into the Stouffville area, resulting in a recently released Special Air Quality Statement.
  • While conditions can fluctuate over the coming days, likelihood for sustained low air quality and poor visibility is high.
  • Wildfire smoke can be harmful to the health of anyone outside, even at low concentrations.
  • Residents with lung diseases like asthma are especially at risk, as are young children, older adults, and those with heart disease.
  • Stouffville and other regions in Southern Ontario may see improved conditions by Friday.
