Michigan Smoky and Hot This Week | Lansing News

Michigan’s air is turning hazy and unhealthy as wildfire smoke from Canada rolls in, forcing the state’s environmental agency to issue a First Alert Weather Day. With fine particulate matter spiking, vulnerable groups like kids, seniors, and those with lung or heart conditions are at risk—even as temperatures soar into the upper 90s. The smoke, initially expected to stay north of Lake Superior, is now being pushed south by shifting winds, hitting the Upper Peninsula first and spreading into the Lower Peninsula overnight. Forecasters warn this smoky, stifling air could linger through Thursday and beyond, compounding the state’s already brutal heat wave.
