Synopsis and Discussion
The Triad remains in an unsettled weather pattern today, allowing air quality levels to remain well within the Code GREEN range. Offshore high pressure has kept the Triad under a warm and humid air mass, but skies have remained cloudy enough to limit solar radiation the last few days. Tomorrow is expected to be more of the same, though some breaks in the cloud deck will likely allow temperatures to rise tomorrow and elevate ozone levels into the middle to upper Code GREEN range. A backdoor cold front moves through the Triad early Friday, allowing for a drier air mass that may cause some elevated particle pollution concentrations to infiltrate the Triad for the weekend. With that said, Code YELLOW AQI is expected for particulate matter for Friday and Saturday, with ozone remaining a secondary pollutant in the upper Code GREEN range. (Payne)
