Wildfire Smoke May Impact Argentina vs Spain World Cup Final

The final match of the World Cup between Argentina and Spain is scheduled to take place on July 14, 2024, at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.

However, there are concerns that smoke from wildfires in Canada might affect the air quality in the area.

A scientist named Mark Parrington said that after a rain event on Saturday, another smoky air mass might follow.

If the fires get more intense on Saturday, more smoke could be released into the air, which might quickly follow the rain and affect the match.

It's not clear yet how much smoke will reach New Jersey by Sunday, but the possibility is being monitored.
