new york. see that eerie orange glow in the town of binghamton but not just new york, neil. take a look at this map. the red and orange dots show you where the air quality is the worst and see it extends as far west as chicago. you see chicago, philadelphia and detroit and canada over 400 wild fires are burning over 100 near quebec, air quality alerts are in effect as far south as north carolina and back out here live, kneel, you also mentioned we're seeing significant delays specifically here in new york at la guardia airport as well as newark international airport. average flight delays are between an hour and a half up to two hours. but if you're not traveling, if you're here in new york or in you're in the heavily impacted areas in the northeast, the upper midwest, again, even as far south as north carolina, it is best to limit the amount of time that you spend outdoors, even if you're not in the most vulnerable population. back to you, neil. >> neil: thank you, nate. i got a report from yo

the new york historical society, because philip hoehn, who was the past mayor of new york city wrote an extensive self diary account of. his visit to our on my and he gives a full page description of what he saw and this description in the diary is in the new york historical society. and i was really, really delighted to be able to use that the book. but i think important to recognize what he saw when he came to the salon in new york city. a captain bears and this is the captain who brought her from china he said in the diary her appearance is exactly the same as the figures on teach us a large head. small features and a countenance devoid of expression in her foot is great curiosity. it is not four inches in length. so this is interesting to me because is presenting from boy as and her visage an object and because he has seen before chinese people but only on teach us in his experi and so i just think that's really interesting that we see this visual image that the khans paying for and promoting and that's what american would be seeing. yeah definitely. and i mean there is sort of t

pennsylvania, upstate new york.et a little break from new york city, it pushes down into d.c. you can see it does improve slightly by the time we get into friday. but the smoke has now pushed a little bit farther to the west. so we're dealing with portions of the mid-atlantic, the ohio valley. so jim, when it's not bad for somebody else, it's going to be bad for someone. this is going to be a big story. unfortunately not just for this week. i think this is going to continue for quite some time. we're still very early in the fire season in canada, and so we have a long way to go. >> it shows just how far and wide those effects can spread. when you look at those comparisons to other cities in the world, delhi at the top of the list, normally u.s. cities far behind that kind of air quality level -- i lived in beijing for a number of years which has often been top of the list. we took precautions there as a result of that. we wore more n95 masks. you think about them for the pandemic. we wore them for the dirty air ther

as you mentioned, the flights in to new york. uh, seeing delays to uh, in some canceled here in new new jersey. the newer to airport has now canceled all inbound flights because of the weather conditions and because of the lack of disability because of all the smoke in the air. and, and so the impact on people continues into climate change experience warning events like this. going to become more common place. yeah, that's what people are talking about now is this goes into the 3rd day uh, wildfires and canada are not unusual. this time of year it's pretty standard operation. but because of the drought light conditions and rising temperatures, the fires have been more intense and worse, and scientists are predicting that this is going to become more and more common as the planet warms. and we had the secretary general of the united nations, of course, un headquarters, right in new york city. he tweeted a picture of himself looking out over the smoky landscape of the city from you and headquarters, making that point that this is w

upstate new york.s is this evening around 6:00. and you can see what happens during the overnight hours where the smoke, the red colors are the thicker, denser smoke, is really going to continue, gets worse for d.c. overnight. do take a little bit of a break, it will improve on friday. but just as we're talking about, there we go. it's going to get worse for portions across -- people in west virginia, western pennsylvania, ohio, and so as that smoke just sort of shifts back and forth this will be the trend. >> yeah. what a scene there. thank you so much, we're going to keep coming back to this. there's a lot to learn. jennifer gray at the weather center. i want to bring in miguel marquez, our reporter in new york city, in times square i believe still. there you are, miguel. tell us what the air feels like there so folks who aren't experiencing this themselves can understand. >> reporter: it's like you're out in the wilderness, and there's a arkansas a camp -- a campfire with a woodsy smell. that is ama

new york city, unhealthy. syracuse, new york, doc, it's off the charts. says hazardous. what is the difference, if folks are saying should i go outside or not outside, what's the difference between unhealthy and hazardous? >> one healthy you might go outside for a short period of time, i would recommend the respirator mask. if it's hazardous, you could provoke an asthma attack or another type of a problem or your oxygen level, if i was measuring would be going down. so i encourage people obviously to stay indoors when all of this is happening, and yes, i've been asked this question all day. if you are indoors and you got your air-conditioner on, your air filtration on, you are not going to have a problem. this is not seeping indoors. but a huge problem outside and in a place like syracuse, you don't want to be outside. >> john: when should people go to the emergency room? >> well, you know, i always answer that by saying it's better to be on the side of caution. but the e.r.s are overcrowded and crowded to begin with. i think if you happen to have one of those pulse oxim
