..."The worst of the smoke seemed to have subsided across much of the country. On Thursday evening, the Environmental Protection Agency deemed the air quality in much of New York state, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and Virginia to be “very unhealthy” or “hazardous.” By Friday morning, most of the warnings were downgraded to “moderate.”

As a result, many bases have resumed normal operations. A spokesperson from Dover AFB told Military Times that the base was “completely operational” as of Friday afternoon, though “the 436th Operational Medical Readiness Squadron is continuing to monitor the situation and is in lockstep with Dover AFB leadership to mitigate risks to Dover AFB personnel.”

At least 420 active fires — more than half of which are “out of control” — continue to rage across Canada, according to the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre. Meteorologists and climate experts expect some respite in the coming days, as shifting winds disperse the shroud elsewhere.

But with the ongoing environmental disaster north of the border, the answer to the question of whether more such shutdowns can be expected in coming weeks is simply blowing in the wind."

If by "climate change" you mean "government not doing prescribed burns" or "idiots starting fires," sure.

UT otherwise you are going to have to prove those forest fires are a result of climate change. Which includes controlling for idiots both in the government and recreational. I don't think anyone is ready to do that, so we will just go ahead and blame climate change because A) it is easier and B) it fits the narrative and C) it helps push the global agenda and D) we can use it to raise money through extortion, blackmail, and guilt.

I ain't saying you're wrong. But I have absolutely no evidence you are right.
