Synopsis and Discussion
Air quality levels current reside in the upper Code GREEN range this afternoon as northerly winds generated by high pressure building in from the north have prevented significant pooling of pollution concentrations. A brief reprieve from hot and humid conditions begins this evening as drier air moves in from the north. Temperatures and dewpoints are expected to be lower than what they have been recently, with air quality levels remaining Code GREEN tomorrow. High pressure will remain over the Triad through much of the week, but the heat will begin to return. Humidity will likely be slow to increase Wednesday and Thursday, with sunny and dry conditions likely leading to Code YELLOW AQI for ozone both days. Particle pollution will likely remain Code GREEN until Thursday, as particulate concentrations slowly build up under the high pressure ridge. (Payne)
