Smoke from wildfires raging nearly 6,000km away in Canada is expected to reach Ireland over the coming days.
Images, posted by In Ireland, that seemed to show fiery-red smoke billowing over Dublin at the weekend were attributed to the effects of Canada’s wildfires.
But weather experts like Alan O’Reilly of Carlow Weather explained that the effect of the wildfires is not due to affect Ireland until this week.
