I thought we had a forest fire near to us here in Montana today, as the smoke is so bad you can see it in the air a block away, the mountains partly obscured by it.

I checked the news online and found the fires are actually in Alaska and Canada, sending a plume of smoke south through Montana and east to the Great Lakes.

Here is a satellite photo of the plume of smoke:
