Forecast Discussion:

All pollutants ended up in the Good AQI range yesterday. Looking ahead, there will be two weather systems moving through, which will bring cooler temperatures and rain to the area. We are forecasting chances for rain tonight and into tomorrow morning, then again later on Thursday.

As for the air quality, the rain and good ventilation should keep pollution levels relatively low through most of the forecast period. There will be some breezy winds today before the rain moves in, but with the recent rain, we don't expect any significant dust. Once the rain moves in later today, we expect particulate levels to improve for the remainder of the week.
