There's a potentially huge problem before the World Cup final.

The World Cup final between Argentina and Spain is set to proceed as planned despite concerns over air quality in New York and New Jersey due to smoke from Canadian wildfires. Local authorities have issued warnings about unhealthy air conditions, but the match at MetLife Stadium is still scheduled for Sunday at 15:00 local time (21:00 Croatian time). The open-air stadium could be affected by weather conditions, though rain is not expected to be a major issue. However, lightning within eight miles of the stadium would force a stoppage of play for at least 30 minutes. Similar weather-related interruptions have occurred during the tournament, but matches have resumed after delays.
