Smoke from California wildfires reaches New York City

Thursday, August 9, 2018
SAN FRANCISCO -- The smoke from the wildfires has not only impacted California residents. Incredibly enough, it has reached New York City - 3,000 miles away.

A map from the National Weather Service shows the smoke spreading across the country.



Thankfully for those on the East Coast, the smoke is more than a mile above the surface, so nobody can see or smell it. But it's rare that smoke makes its way across the country.
