Environment Canada has posted another smoky skies bulletin for the Okanagan Valley, though forecasted rains throughout the region could alleviate conditions in some areas.
The smoke is expected to loom over the valley for the next two days.
Environment Canada is urging people to be mindful of the health effects of wildfire smoke and limit time spent outdoors.
