Currently, wind gusts and low humidity are fueling wildfires across the Northeast, affecting millions of people from New York to Massachusetts. Cities like New York City and Boston are under fire alerts due to dry conditions and strong winds. The lack of rainfall has left vegetation dry, resulting in numerous brush fires. Firefighters are working to contain fires in areas like Brooklyn, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. Air quality concerns are rising, especially in the New York City area. Meanwhile, on the West Coast, the Mountain Fire in California continues to burn, spreading across thousands of acres with low containment. Firefighters are working to control the blaze amid sunny and dry conditions.
