The images of the smoke seen on the other side of the Atlantic were captured in Vigo, in the northwest of Spain.

The skies of the American metropolis were covered in smoke on Tuesday, making Chicago the second most polluted city in the world by evening.

Detroit, Michigan held the unenviable top spot in IQAir’s rankings.
