A statewide air quality advisory has been issued for Wisconsin because of wildfire activity in Canada. The DNR says smoke from wildfires in Canada is drifting from the northeast to southwest across Wisconsin throughout the day.

Those include children, elderly, individuals with respiratory and cardiac problems, and anyone engaged in strenuous outdoor activities for a prolonged period of time. The advisory is in effect until midnight tonight.
