The sun is pictured in an undated image. (File Image) The final few days of July are looking to be hot, humid and hazy for parts of the Maritimes. Hazy conditions Environment Canada shared on social media that 'hazy skies' are in the forecast Sunday for New Brunswick. As of 1 p.m., there were no air quality advisories in effect for any parts of the Maritimes. However, neighbouring parts of Quebec were under a special air quality statement Sunday due to wildfire smoke from the Prairies. The Air Quality Health Index for New Brunswick Sunday is generally classified as a 'low risk,' but for areas with smoke, it is at a 'moderate risk' on the scale. These areas include Bathurst, Campbellton, Edmundston, Fredericton and Miramichi. The Air Quality Health Index shows a drop to 'low risk' for these areas by Sunday evening. 'When forest fire smoke is present in the mid and upper levels of the atmosphere, sunrise and sunset are often very red due to the wavelengths of light that are absorbed/blocked,' the weather agency shared. The Public Health Agency of Canada said wildfire smoke can cause coughing, shortness of breath and irritated eyes. Hot and humid Nova Scotia's Annapolis County is warning of a stretch of hot and humid weather on the way. Annapolis Regional Emergency Management Organization (REMO) had put out an early notification for extreme temperatures.

It did note Monday and Tuesday are 'looking to be fairly hot in parts of Nova Scotia.' Environment Canada said it is possible warnings may be issued as the system moves closer. During periods of extreme heat, people should drink plenty of water, stay in shaded or cool areas, and plan activities during the cooler parts of the day. Relief is expected to arrive Wednesday as a cooler air mass moves into the region. For more Nova Scotia news, visit our dedicated provincial page
