Also, smoke from a massive, out-of-control wildfire in northern Alberta is not expected to affect Okanagan air quality. The fire, near the town of High Level, is approximately 69,000 hectares in size and has sparked evacuations.
According to the website firesmoke.ca, the smoke from the wildfire is pushing into B.C., the Northwest Territories and the Yukon.
Air quality levels in the North, Cental and South Okanagan are at the low rating (Level Two) on the air quality health index.
