As of May 16, fires have scorched 478,000 hectares (1,800 square miles) in southern Canada – 10-times the average area burned for this time of year.

@noaa's GOES-18 satellite captured smoke from the fires over Canada and the U.S. on May 15, 2023. https://go.nasa.gov/45l4KGu

my friend who lives in Ontario has been commenting on the increase of smoky skies. It's so sad.
