All to know about Canadian wildfire smoke, air quality and World Cup final A thunderstorm rolled through the region, causing disruptions, and a haze raised air quality concerns in New York City. The lingering smoke from the Canadian wildfires sparked earlier this week has engulfed the northeastern region of the United States, raising questions about its impact on the Spain vs Argentina final in New Jersey on Sunday. A visible haze hung over the twin World Cup host states of New York and New Jersey on Saturday, with inclement weather causing disruptions. Here’s what we know about the smoke, weather and World Cup final: Is there a haze in New York and New Jersey before the World Cup final? How is the weather and what’s the forecast in New Jersey before the Spain vs Argentina final? “In terms of the thickest smoke, the smoke that has really been eye-popping and leads to poor air quality, that is not expected across New York City or much of the northeast.” Jeff Berardelli, chief meteorologist and climate specialist at WFLA-TV, echoed the forecast, saying the storm front would “sweep the atmosphere clean”, leaving only a thin smoke that World Cup spectators may still smell in the air.
