Following yesterday’s rainfall, fine particle concentrations have decreased to the lower Code Green range today. Sunshine has allowed ozone concentrations to climb into the upper Code Green range. Dry weather is on tap for the next couple of days as an upper-level low spins to our north and west. The low will finally begin to weaken and move northeastward as we get toward midweek. Conditions appear conducive for temperature inversion formation on Monday night and Tuesday night, thereby helping increase particle pollution concentrations during the overnight hours. Additionally, lower dew points and plenty of sunshine will create conditions that should aid ozone formation during daylight hours. AQI readings are expected to increase slowly, reaching the lower Code Yellow range by Tuesday and Wednesday. (Perrotte)
