A weather expert has revealed the full extent to which the Canadian wildfires will impact the upcoming World Cup final, as White House officials prepare to meet FIFA for crisis talks over mounting concerns of potential health dangers.

The crisis talks follow several days of heavy pollution across the Northeast, leaving many wondering if MetLife Stadium will remain safe enough to host Sunday's final.

On Thursday, the air quality in New Jersey, site of the stadium, was rated 'unhealthy for sensitive groups' by several air-quality measurement platforms.

Just one day later, Sky News revealed that White House officials have talks in place with FIFA President Gianni Infantino over the matter.

However, despite the mounting anxiety behind closed doors, an expert meteorologist has revealed that the drifting Canadian wildfire smoke is expected to clear up significantly before the game kicks off.

AccuWeather's Adam Douty revealed: 'Air quality in the NYC area is expected to be poor to unhealthy on Saturday. However, good news for the match is that we should see improved air quality on Sunday for the final.

A weather expert has revealed the full extent to which the Canadian wildfires will impact Sunday's World Cup final between Argentina and Spain at MetLife Stadium

Smoke from Canadian wildfires has hit the northeastern US before the World Cup final

'It may still not be considered good, but it should not be as bad as Saturday. It will also be less humid compared to Saturday, which will make for more comfortable conditions'.

The updated forecast suggests a mostly sunny afternoon in East Rutherford, with AccuWeather expecting the temperature to peak at a manageable 87 degrees.

However, while the final looks set to dodge a weather disaster, the outlook is considerably more chaotic for Saturday's third-place match between France and England.

The game faces a brutal environment at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, where temperatures will reach the low 90s - but will 'feel' around 100 degrees.

Douty added: 'People heading to Miami can expect typically warm and humid conditions. We are monitoring the potential for tropical development from the northern Gulf of America to the southwestern Atlantic.

'The core of moisture and rain from this potential tropical system is likely to remain to the north of Miami, though a thunderstorm may still impact the match.

'Lightning has the potential to delay the game,' the AccuWeather expert added.

More than 80,000 people are expected to attend the World Cup final between holders Argentina and Spain, the European champions, at the open-air New York-New Jersey stadium, while another 50,000 are expected to watch the game from Central Park

Despite mounting anxiety behind closed doors, an expert meteorologist has revealed that the drifting Canadian wildfire smoke is expected to clear up significantly before the game kicks off

White House officials are set to meet with FIFA President Gianna Infantino over the matter

Wildfire smoke from northern Canada has been a common summer occurrence across wide swathes of the United States in recent years.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul said on Thursday the smoke was creating unhealthy air conditions across the state and urged people to stay indoors.

In the latest developments on Friday, US President Donald Trump threatened to impose tariffs on Canada over wildfire smoke choking US cities.

'We are holding Canada responsible for the fact that they are not properly maintaining their forests and brush,' the President wrote on Truth Social.

The US is being 'invaded by filthy, polluted, and unhealthy air, the quality of which is dangerous, and totally unacceptable,' Trump added.

He vowed to call Prime Minister Mark Carney to demand answers, claiming that the 'cost is incalculable.'

'We are holding Canada responsible for the fact that they are not properly maintaining their forests and brush,' the President wrote on Truth Social Friday, threatening to tariff Canada further due to the smoke and pollution hitting US cities because of the blaze in Ontario

Thick smoke has blanketed major cities along the East Coast, including Washington, DC

'This is willful negligence, and becoming a yearly occurrence, costing the United States billions of dollars, which cost of this pollution must of necessity be added to the tariffs Canada is currently paying,' Trump said.

Fires that have been blazing in Canada's Ontario province have caused massive plumes of smoke to blanket much of the eastern US.

Those plumes reached major US cities like Washington, DC, and New York City on Thursday evening.

The President likely experienced the smoky condition in the capital while traveling to New York City for a work dinner on Friday evening before sending off his post.
