As summer continues, we're seeing some familiar seasonal trends: heat, humidity and ... drifting smoke?
Wildfires in Canada continue to push smoky air south into the Midwest, as has been the case over the past couple of years.
13 WREX meteorologist John Jurgens discusses the ongoing smoke, along with precautions residents can take to stay safe while it lingers in the area.
Jurgens also explains the difference between this recent heat wave and the previous heat wave that moved through the WNIJ listening area earlier this month. He also discusses why heat warnings were not issued during the latest stretch of high temperatures.
