Extra Time: The state of air quality conditions in New York City
In this edition of 'Eyewitness News Extra Time,' we begin with the state of air quality in New York City following the Canadian wildfire.

NEW YORK (WABC) -- In this edition of 'Eyewitness News Extra Time,' we begin with the state of air quality in New York City following the Canadian wildfire.

That smoke that has cloaked New York City over the last 24 hours has been drifting down from the more than 400 wildfires burning in Canada.

Most schools were already scheduled to have the day off tomorrow, but now others are being shifted to remote learning.

Alternate side parking rules have been suspended Friday.

As things seem to point toward some kind of normalcy, Chief Meteorologist Lee Goldberg takes a look into the air quality levels.

Here are the other major headlines from Thursday's show:
