Dangerous wildfire smoke hurting air quality in US as extreme heat and fire concerns grow

A wildfire, the Dragon Bravo Fire, at the Grand Canyon's North Rim has burned at least 50 structures, including a historic lodge. The fire has charred over 112,000 acres and is only 9% contained. Elsewhere, severe weather is impacting the Southeast with flash flooding, while Canadian wildfire smoke causes poor air quality across the Midwest. Extreme heat and fire weather warnings are in effect for parts of the Southwest and Utah, with the Monroe Canyon Fire burning over 55,000 acres.
