Milwaukee hit an all-time air quality low as smoke from Canadian wildfires blanketed the city, pushing AQI readings over 600—more than double the level considered dangerous for everyone. Officials declared it a historic, hazardous event, with most of Wisconsin in the “hazardous” zone, urging all residents to stay indoors, especially vulnerable groups like kids, seniors, and those with asthma or heart conditions. The smoke stretched over 1,000 miles, affecting cities from Duluth to Detroit, reminding us how global environmental events can hit home.
