Alabamians sick of clouds and rain and looking forward to clear skies may have to wait a bit longer — but it’s not because of rain.

It’s smoke from faraway wildfires.

The cold front that brought in a last round of rain and storms on Thursday shifted the wind pattern and brought in smoke from the Northwest.

According to The Associated Press, smoke from dozens of wildfires in central and western Canada is traveling south, pushed by winds high in the atmosphere.

And that smoke may hang around in Alabama until next week, according to the National Weather Service.

The AP reported that the smoke could affect air quality in parts of the Midwest, but so far that is not an issue for Alabama.

As of Saturday afternoon, Alabama’s air quality in many spots was in the moderate zone, according to AirNow.gov, and that is expected to continue on Sunday.

Here is the air quality forecast for Sunday:

The smoke in the air is not expected to cause any visibility issues in Alabama, and it could help amplify the sunsets and sunrises thanks to smoke particles in the air.
