Air quality alert for interior Alaska due to wildfire smoke

Fairbanks, Bettles, Fort Yukon, and other areas are experiencing moderate to unhealthy conditions, with smoke settling in overnight and reducing visibility sometimes to less than a mile. Fort Yukon, Fairbanks, and Bettles are expected to see the most significant smoke impacts, with unhealthy air likely by evening.

This smoke is the result of a recent surge in wildfire activity across the interior, where hot, dry, and windy weather has driven up the number and intensity of active fires.
