Southeast Wisconsin weather: Air quality levels 'unhealthy' due to smoke

Southeast Wisconsin weather: Air quality levels 'unhealthy' due to smoke
and last updated

The smoke situation is gross across much of southeast Wisconsin with air quality levels in the "unhealthy" range. Everyone handles the smoke differently, but in general, I would limit your workload/activity outdoors at least through tomorrow morning. The smoke should start rising in the atmosphere by tomorrow afternoon and the air quality should slowly improve.

Along with the smoke, some fog may develop tonight with lows in the 50s. Beside the smoke, our weather looks nice tomorrow with highs around 70 and mostly sunny skies.

When the air quality could be unhealthy:
