Smoke smell and haze in Orange County

Posted on May 16, 2007 by Susan Dickson

Smoke from the wildfires in South Georgia has migrated to the area, causing a slight haze and smoke smell.

The National Weather Service in Raleigh said a smoke plume from the wildfires spread across central North Carolina  early today because of a cold front and strong southwesterly winds. As it gets hotter throughout the day, the smoke should lift higher into the atmosphere and become less concentrated, according to the National Weather Service.

People with asthma or other breathing conditions should limit their outdoor exposure today, the National Weather Service said.
