1/n: On the plus side, as the closed low drifts slowly westward the fires in #Quebec are likely to be *somewhat* less prolific in their smoke production today. In this loop you can see the clouds overspreading the fire region:
2/n: Looking at the thermal IR you can clearly see the fires and the clouds moving overhead
3/n: This likely means that the HRRR/RAP smoke forecasts for later today (image) are overdone, since they are (last I checked) based on persistence in the satellite detected fire data and don't have a coupled fire-atmosphere model. So maybe tomorrow's smoke won't be quite as bad. 
4/n: The flip side is that with less active fires, sometimes the smoldering combustion produces extremely high concentrations at ground level (less lofting) in regions proximal to the fire.
