Fine particle concentrations are hovering near the Code Green/Yellow threshold and similar readings are expected through the rest of the workweek as low pressure drifts away and high pressure builds into the Great Lakes region, extending into our area. With sunsets getting ever earlier and the sun staying lower in the sky, there is less solar energy to promote ozone formation and sustain concentrations for an eight hour average. As a result, upper Code Green concentrations are expected although readings may approach the Code Green/Yellow threshold on Friday as the air mass stagnates some under sunny skies.
