Synopsis and Discussion

Air quality levels will be in the YELLOW range this afternoon as light southwesterly winds help Ozone production in the Triad. This increasing trend will continue as the week progresses as highs increase each day and end up near the 90-degree mark Friday. While high pressure will dominate the southeastern US, AQI readings should be held in check by the limited daylight hours and lower sun angles. Expect AQI readings to remain in the low to mid YELLOW range through Friday before a cold front slides through the Triad and brings fall weather back into the region for the weekend. (Bodenhamer)
