Synopsis and Discussion
Air quality readings are holding in the YELLOW range as high pressure builds over the southeastern US. Winds will continue to be out of the southwest as this air mass sits over the southeast and becomes more and more stagnant. Temperatures will also increase each day as highs hold in the low 80s Monday and reach the 90 degree mark by mid-week. This will produce a scenario to closely monitor as AQI readings could end up near the YELLOW/ORANGE range Wednesday and/or Thursday. Right now, upper YELLOW levels are likely later this week but stay tuned to the forecast each day as updates could be needed. (Bodenhamer) *** Due to increased wildfire risk and severe drought across most of the state, the N.C. Forest Service has issued a statewide ban on all open burning and has canceled all burning permits statewide. ***
