Ste. Rose, McCreary and Alonsa are under a special air quality statement after smoke from forest fires in northern Manitoba drifted over to the region this morning.

Environment Canada says a cold front that came in last night also brought the smoke from fires going on between Red Lake and Bissett.

Individuals might experience symptoms such as increased coughing, throat irritation, headaches or shortness of breath

There is no air quality statement for the Dauphin area.
