Synopsis and Discussion
Once again, a strong overnight and early morning inversion helped to push particle pollution levels to code YELLOW, Tuesday. Ozone is also climbing to the upper end of code GREEN, due to the clear skies and lower humidity. High pressure will remain over the region, through Wednesday. Continued clear skies, will allow for excellent radiational cooling and another strong inversion overnight into Wednesday morning. As a result, particle pollution will remain code YELLOW, Wednesday. Sunny skies, warmer temperatures, and low humidity will aid in ozone production, Wednesday, and a return to low code YELLOW values. A dry cold front will sweep through the Triad, early Thursday. The change in air mass will lead to lower, code GREEEN particle pollution and ozone, Thursday and possibly, Friday (GENTRY).
