Flights heading towards New York’s LaGuardia Airport were temporarily suspended by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on Wednesday due to decreased visibility caused by smoke originating from wildfires in Canada.

In a statement, the FAA said, “The FAA has taken steps to manage the flow of traffic into the New York City area due to reduced visibility from wildfire smoke. Flights bound for LaGuardia International Airport have been paused. Flights to Newark Liberty International Airport have been slowed.”

The FAA reported delays of approximately one and a half hours for flights at Newark.

Starting on Tuesday and continuing into Wednesday, smoke from the Canadian wildfires descended southward, enveloping the New York City area.

At the top you can select other cameras. The Empire State Building camera really shows how hazy it still is in NYC.

It’s a grayish tint here in CT but when you can see the sun it does have an orange tint to it. Just saw a jet flyover under the haze. Must be circling waiting to land at a NY airport.

Los Angeles looked like that every day for many many years, but that was when we were headed for an extinction level ICE AGE caused by our Pollution(CARBON)that miraculously changed course and turned in to Man Made Global warming and the air cleared.

The Blue Ridge is exceptionally blue ... Morning sun was distinctly orange.

There was an orange tint earlier in the afternoon. Probably because of the sun angle.

Now it's just plain grey.

My location is Long Island.

Foul, greyish-orange air is perfectly appropriate for New York City.

The federal Clean Air Act, the EPA, and Cali’s decision to to do something about it is what caused it to change course.

Thank Congress for passing laws.
