Forecasters warn that hazy, grayish-blue skies could persist for many weeks as fires continue to burn, though most smoke will remain high in the atmosphere.

Sunny summer days may not be quite as bright this year as smoke from wildfires burning across Canada occasionally spreads across the United States, resulting in hazy conditions and poor air quality.

A blue sky may be a rare sight across the Finger Lakes and much of the Northeast this summer. AccuWeather meteorologists say wildfire smoke from Canada is expected to repeatedly push into the region through at least August.
