💨 Abstract

Smoke from Canadian wildfires will impact the D.C. area on Wednesday, leading to increased particle pollution. The Air Quality Index will likely reach Code Yellow on Tuesday evening, advising sensitive individuals to limit outdoor activities. By Wednesday afternoon, it may escalate to Code Orange, warning sensitive groups to avoid strenuous outdoor activities. Weak winds from a high-pressure system will keep the smoke in the region through the workweek.
