Why was the moon orange last night in New York?
Briefly

The reddish hue of the moon observed in the New York City area was caused by smoke from wildfires in Central Canada, affecting the sky's clarity.
Wildfire smoke traveling from Quebec mixed with emissions from Manitoba and Saskatchewan resulted in hazy, yellow-orange skies over the Tri-State area.
Despite hazy skies, the recent sunrises and sunsets have been breathtaking, as well as the moonrise events, showcasing stunning colors.
Looking forward, smoke is expected to clear out of the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut area over the weekend, unlike previous severe incidents.
