Smoke from the Canadian wildfires is expected to impact Delanco and much of New Jersey today and over the coming days. You may notice hazy skies 🌫️ and the smell of smoke 👃 even when there is no fire in the area.

⚠️ Don't ignore the signs of a real emergency. If you see heavy smoke 💨 coming from a building 🏠, vehicle 🚗, wooded area 🌳, or anywhere that appears unusual or localized, or you see flames 🔥, call 9-1-1 ☎️ immediately.

💯 We'd much rather respond and find nothing than have an actual fire go unreported.
