Smoke plumes from forest fires in Quebec are being carried over New Brunswick this morning. --------------------------------------------------------------------- ==discussion== Special air quality statement. Forest fires over Quebec are producing significant smoke plumes that are being carried southeastward by mid and low-level atmospheric flow. Satellite pictures and surface observations show a smoke plume extending from Quebec along the Maine and New Brunswick border. The smoke may descend close to the ground and reduce the air quality for several hours. Winds are expected to become more westerly this afternoon and push the smoke into the Gulf of St Lawrence and will lead to an improvement in air quality. End
