Wet weather expected later this weekend won't be enough to make much difference to clear the air in the Prince George area, according to the smoky skies bulletin.
The latest forecasts say the conservative rainfall predicted over the weekend will be little help in battling current wildfires.
Communities downwind of the wildfires will keep experiencing high concentrations of fine particulate matter and poor air quality.
Wildfire smoke is now a natural part of our environment so it's important to remember that exposure to the smoke can affect your health.
People with pre-existing health conditions, the elderly, infants, children and sensitive individuals are more likely to experience health effects from smoke exposure.
