Chicago has the worst air quality of any city in the world today, according to the World Air Quality Index. Smoke from Canadian wildfires was pushed into the area, dropping air quality to unhealthy levels.
Chicago is monitoring the smoke and recommending residents consider wearing masks, limiting their time outside and moving activities indoor. They are also advising residents close windows and turn on an air purifier if you have one, the city said in a statement.
