From sea to smokey sea.
The deadly and devastating wildfires along the West Coast have been generating massive amounts of smoke that reached the East Coast on Monday.
The National Weather Service (NWS) had several forecast offices on Monday note that hazy skies in Virginia, New York, New Jersey and in New England states were from the ongoing blazes.

"This is smoke lofted well aloft in the atmosphere emanating from the Western U.S. wildfires," the NWS Boston tweeted.
The NWS New York forecast office said the smoke has given the sky in the region a "yellow or brown" tinge.
The smoke is at 25,000 feet, which forecasters said should not have any impact on air quality on the ground.
While the smoke is high enough in the atmosphere to not cause any air quality issues, it will still give a milky or hazy appearance in the sky.
