Smoke from fires in Canada is having a variety of impacts on our region, but what about those who are on the road? Here are some tips from AAA Northeast: 

•    Drive with your windows closed. 
•    Use the “recirculation” button in your car to prevent bad air coming in from the outside. 
•    Treat visibility the same way you would in any bad weather – slow down and increase your following distance. 
•    Monitor traffic advisories, especially if you plan on driving over large bridges. 

 
Those traveling by air should also be aware of impacts from the smoke. Plan a flight early in the day when possible and check with your airline or download your airline app or work with your AAA Travel advisor to be made aware of any sudden delays or cancellations.
