Forecast Discussion:

High pressure is now over the region, which should bring nice temperatures through the week. We expect mostly sunny skies, light winds, and pleasant temperatures the next several days. As for the air quality, PM10will be locally driven, with highest concentrations during the morning hours. PM10 is forecast to drop into the Good range over the weekend with less dust-generating work activities. As for PM2.5, it is forecast to hover around the low Moderate range through the forecast period. And lastly, it is too late in the year for any ozone concerns. Therefore, ozone is forecast to stay in the Good category through the forecast period.
