Synopsis and Discussion
Air quality levels re in the upper YELLOW range Sunday afternoon as southwest winds continue to feed warmer air into the Triad. High pressure is dominating the weather in the southeastern US and true summertime heat is making its presence felt. Ozone is reacting quickly to the heat and wind direction as readings are expected to push into the upper YELLOW range again Monday. Increasing humidity levels should help offset the return of workweek emissions, but AQI levels should be right at the YELLOW/ORANGE border. As the heat and building humidity continue through mid-week, expect upper YELLOW AQI levels through Wednesday. Please continue to stay tuned for updates to the forecast as they are needed.
