Remember that air quality and wildfire conditions can change rapidly, so it's important to stay updated through reliable sources and official government websites. Additionally, new websites and resources may have emerged since my last update, so consider searching for the latest information as well.
If you're looking for information about the sources of smoke haze in your area, I recommend checking local news sources, government agencies responsible for air quality monitoring, and official websites that provide real-time updates on air quality and wildfires. These sources should provide you with accurate and up-to-date information about the origin and sources of smoke haze in your region.
Some of the websites I mentioned earlier, such as AirNow, Fire and Smoke Map, and national or regional environmental protection agencies, would likely have information about the current sources of smoke haze in various locations.
