Synopsis and Discussion
Broad high pressure has overspread the region, Thursday, as particle pollution remains elevated and mid code YELLOW. With the return of mostly sunny skies, during the afternoon, ozone may also reach low code YELLOW. The warming trend will continue into Friday, resulting in MODERATE air quality. A weak front and disturbance will swing across the Triad, Saturday, leading to clouds and light showers. The unsettled weather will reduce ozone levels back to code GREEN but particle pollution should remain code YELLOW. Sunshine and warm weather will return, Sunday. Typically, ozone is lower on Sundays due to less work week emissions, thus, code GREEN is forecast. On the other hand, particle pollution looks to remain low code YELLOW, to end the weekend (GENTRY).
