Sunrises Around the World Are Being Effected by the West Coast Wildfires
The sunrise looks a lot different these days. It’s beautiful but frightening. The eerie #haze in our skies this week is caused by #WesternWildfires smoke hitching a ride on the jet stream and moving about 20,000 feet above our area. Since the particles are so high, there’s little effect on air quality at ground level (Photo credit: Joseph Kaczmarek) pic.twitter.com/d7cXlz1YO2
We collected photos from around globe to see how the haze is effecting our early rising (or up late!) neighbors:

The typical clear, bright sunrise is filtered through a veil of smoke high in the atmosphere. #OldSaybrook pic.twitter.com/Arv9KLlIqz

It's #8oclock. The smoke from the west has floated its way across the USA to alter my daily views in a beautiful way. I wonder what it saw along the way? #sunrise pic.twitter.com/R1CCtNZ37n

St Pete Beach - 7:09 AM from the dock. I am pretty convinced that all the tropical moisture in the atmosphere really enhances the colors in the sunrise. #sunrise @bn9weather @spann pic.twitter.com/W6T7LovuBQ
