CONCORD — Smoke from wildfires in Canada continue to reduce air quality in New Hampshire last week after the state declared an air quality action day on Saturday.

Over the past weekend, the air quality index for New Hampshire once again dipped to an unhealthy level due to smoke from wildfires in Canada. The state Department of Environmental Services declared an air quality action day for Saturday with unhealthy levels of fine particle air pollution statewide, as reported on the state’s Web page at www4.des.state.nh.us/airdata. The air quality index (AQI) was forecasted to be color code red, which is the third-highest level of concern.
