A plume of dense smoke from scores of raging wildfires stretched across much of the northeastern United States and southern Canada today, prompting officials and health experts in some of the region’s most populated cities to urge residents to avoid spending too much time in the polluted air. Air quality readings in Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, Minneapolis and Toronto surged to levels so dangerous that one public health expert said “nobody should spend time outside.” Conditions were forecast to worsen throughout the day as skylines and tall buildings disappeared from view under a suffocating haze, and dozens of wildfires continued to burn. By midday, sensors in the Upper Midwest and southern Ontario, where the smoke was at its most dense, were recording the worst air quality in North America. Readings in Washington, Philadelphia and New York City were all at unhealthy levels.
