Back in the U.S., wildfires are raging on both the west and east coasts as recent data shows all but two states are facing historic drought conditions. An 18-year-old firefighter, Dariel Vasquez, died Saturday while battling the Jennings Creek fire in New York and New Jersey. Air quality alerts were issued in New York City over the weekend as smoke and haze from multiple fires filled the skies, including a brushfire in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park. Fire crews have also been battling flames in Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Massachusetts.
