DENVER — It'll be hazy for the next couple of days as wildfire smoke settles in across the Front Range mountains, the Denver metro area and along the Eastern Plains.

The smoke is coming into Colorado from wildfires burning in the Pacific Northwest and even Canada. This will impact the air quality dramatically as an Action Day for Multiple Pollutants will be in effect until at least 4 p.m. Tuesday for much of the Front Range.

Not only will there be high levels of smoke particulates around the metro area but also high levels of ozone. If you have asthma or any kind of respiratory problems, stay indoors as much as you can.

It'll be a hazy start to your Tuesday and it'll be a bit warmer too. Look for lower 90s Tuesday afternoon and it’ll be even hotter on Wednesday.

Look for the wildfire smoke to gradually move out Wednesday and some sunshine to move in Wednesday and Thursday. It'll be toasty with highs in the mid- to upper-90s.

More afternoon storms and showers are possible starting Friday and will continue through the weekend.
