Smoke from Canadian wildfires forecast to reach Norway

  June 8, 2023 GMT

  COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Norwegian officials said the [72]smoke from
  Canadian wildfires that has enveloped parts of the U.S. and Canada in a
  thick haze is expected to pour into Norway on Thursday.

  Atmosphere and climate scientists with the Norwegian Climate and
  Environmental Research Institute used a forecast model to predict how
  the smoke would travel through the atmosphere.

  The smoke has moved over Greenland and Iceland since June 1, and
  observations in southern Norway have recorded increasing concentrations
  of aerosolized particles, the independent research institution said.

  “We may be able to see some haze or smell smoke,” Nikolaos Evangeliou,
  a senior NILU researcher, said. “However, we do not believe that the
  number of particles in the air here in Norway will be large enough to
  be harmful to our health.”

  Kjetil Tørseth, research director with NILU, said that with “the
  increasing temperatures due to climate change, forest fires are likely
  to be more common and of a larger magnitude.

  “So I think these kind of episodes are to be more common in the future.
  And they do, of course, have an impact on climate,” he told The
  Associated Press. “We are especially interested to see the effects on
  the Arctic, where soot deposition onto snow and ice might actually
  increase the local warming.”

  Canada and the east coast of the U.S. have experienced [74]hazardous
  levels of pollution from the Canadian wildfires, mainly in the eastern
  province of Quebec. Massive tongues of unhealthy air extended as far as
  the U.S. Midwest. The smoke has affected millions of people, led to
  flight delays at major airports, caused the postponement of Major
  League Baseball games and prompted people to fish out pandemic-era face
  masks.

  Canada has asked for help fighting more than 400 blazes nationwide.
