Synopsis and Discussion
Persistent northerly winds have kept temperatures fairly mild today to keep air quality levels contained in the upper Code GREEN range. High pressure will continue to reside over the Triad throughout the day tomorrow, with light and variable winds2 allowing for ample ozone production to lift air quality levels into the lower Code YELLOW range. An upper level low pressure system approaches from the west on Sunday, but cloud cover isn't expected to increase across the Piedmont until later in the afternoon and should allow for ozone levels to rise into the lower Code YELLOW range. Widespread showers move into the Triad overnight and through Monday, dropping ozone and particle pollution levels into the low to middle Code GREEN range. (Payne)
