Synopsis and Discussion

Particle pollution levels are in the upper code GREEN/low code YELLOW range, across the Triad, Wednesday. Strong high pressure, over the NE US, will ridge into the region, Thursday through Saturday. Moderate NE winds, Thursday, will push a cleaner air mass into the state, leading to code GREEN ozone and particle pollution. The winds will decrease, Friday and Saturday, which may lead to strong overnight inversions, and briefly higher particle pollution readings. Although, good afternoon mixing both days will net out to code GREEN (GENTRY).
