Synopsis and Discussion
Air quality levels have improved into the GREEN range as northerly winds bring clean, cool air into the Triad. Highs will only reach into the mid to upper 60s Thursday, but a quick warming trend will begin Friday as highs reach into the mid 70s. As this new high pressure area drifts east and south, winds will begin to shift from the north to the west through the day Friday. Wind speeds will also decrease as the center of the air mass slides across the state. The center will continue to drift offshore by Saturday and feed our region with much warmer air as highs are expected to be in the upper 80s. AQI levels will increase each of the next 3 days, as Friday should be in the lower YELLOW range and the weekend will be in the mid to upper YELLOW range. Please stay tuned for updates to the forecast as the chance for higher AQI levels is possible early next week. (Bodenhamer)
