WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAW) - Highs are set to top out in the mid to upper-80s, at least a few degrees ahead of our highs so far in 2025. Sunny skies and breezy southwest winds will allow us to warm up. Like the last couple of days, any sunshine will be fairly hazy. The smoke and hazy skies will continue due to the wildfire smoke from Canada. Along with the sunshine, we will be dealing with more Canadian wildfire smoke again today.

WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAW) - Poor air quality continues for most of Wisconsin Friday, due to wildfire smoke from Canada. All of Wisconsin is under an Air Quality Alert through 6 AM Saturday morning, with slowly improving conditions arriving throughout the day Saturday. While some smoke could linger Saturday morning, smoke should move southwest of us and mostly out of our area, creating much better conditions for outdoor activities as skies clear. A pleasant and nice weekend.
