Something strange is in the air—literally and figuratively.
As reported by Newsweek, over a million drivers in the U.S. have been urged to avoid gas stations due to an undisclosed safety concern. The warnings come just as large parts of the Midwest and Northeast are grappling with dangerously poor air quality from Canadian wildfires.
In Nebraska, the smoke has created thick, choking air, leading to widespread health alerts. According to 1011 NOW, residents are being asked to stay indoors, wear N95 masks if going out, and avoid strenuous outdoor activity.
Meanwhile, along the East Coast, cities like Boston are experiencing strange haze conditions. As WCVB reports, the hazy skies are masking the sun and contributing to eerily warm temperatures reaching the 70s by midday.
So what can you do right now?
- Check your local air quality index (AQI) before heading outdoors.
- Keep windows closed and use air purifiers if possible.
- Avoid driving unless absolutely necessary—especially near affected gas stations.
- Stay informed via reliable news sources and emergency alerts.
The skies may look calm—but the warnings are loud and clear. Air matters. Stay safe.
