Toxic Air Alert: 10 Million Americans Urged To Stay Indoors Amid Chemical Emergency

A massive wildfire in Ocean County, New Jersey, has burned over 15,000 acres, prompting New York City to issue an air quality alert due to toxic smoke drifting across state lines.Officials warn that the smoke contains dangerous fine particles (PM2.5) and cancer-linked chemicals

like PAHs, posing serious health risks—especially to children, the elderly, and people with heart or lung conditions. Over 10 million residents across NYC, Long Island, and surrounding counties have been urged to stay indoors.

The fire, believed to be started by a 19-year-old man who failed to extinguish a bonfire, forced 5,000 evacuations. While no injuries have been reported, structures remain threatened as dry weather fuels the blaze.

Air Quality Index (AQI) levels may exceed 100, triggering symptoms like coughing, eye irritation, and shortness of breath. Officials urge limited outdoor activity until the fire is fully contained—possibly not until rain arrives this weekend. Read more below
