Special air quality statement in effect
Wildfire smoke is causing deteriorated air quality in parts of Ontario, including Niagara.
Environment Canada says smoke from fires in Quebec and northeastern Ontario has found its way here.
Niagara is currently listed as high risk on Ontario's Air Quality Health Index
You're advised to limit your time outdoors, especially if you experience symptoms like coughing.
As well, the Fort Erie Fire Department has issued a ban on open burning.
Conditions are expected to improve tomorrow night.
