Parts of Vancouver Island may already see some smoky skies as light smoke filters from fires in north east of B.C., shown on firesmoke.ca.
The map follows and predicts concentrations of fine particular matter at ground level from wildfires. Friday (May 17) sees light smoke between 10 and 28 particulate matter (pm) starting at the top of the Island, making its way down through the course of the day.
While some might notice the light smoke, the provincial air quality index forecasts low risk air quality health concerns.
Smoky skies should abate over night across the Island and remain clear through Sunday, as far ahead as the map predicts.
