The 207-foot superyacht Satori, reportedly owned by billionaire businessman and AlixPartners founder Jay Alix, was spotted in the Cuyahoga River downtown 🛥️

Wildfire smoke from Canada has moved into Greater Cleveland, bringing what WKYC Senior Meteorologist Matt Wintz says could be “some of the worst air quality we’ve had in Cleveland.”
Greater Cleveland is under a Code Maroon Air Quality Alert, the highest air quality warning issued by NOACA.
The Ohio EPA has also issued an Air Quality Advisory statewide. Health officials recommend avoiding prolonged outdoor activity, especially for children, older adults, and anyone with heart or lung conditions, while everyone else should consider limiting time outside as well.
Forecasters say the smoke is expected to continue impacting Northeast Ohio into Friday.
The City of Cleveland has also extended hours at several Neighborhood Resource and Recreation Centers to provide residents with safe, air-conditioned spaces. Outdoor recreation activities have been canceled, and city pools are closed for the day because of the air quality alert. (See the final slides for details.)
