Forecast Discussion:
Strong winds were observed yesterday, which did cause some blowing dust in the region. This caused particulate levels to end up in the Moderate AQI category. Ozone on the other hand, comfortably ended up in the Good AQI category, Today should be a relatively calm day, before breezy winds return Wednesday and Thursday with another trough moving through the area. Then, we'll close out the week with a return to calmer weather conditions.
As for the air quality, we are forecasting all pollutant to end up in the Good category today. Wednesday and Thursday, we are forecasting particulate levels to jump back up with gusty winds. We don't expect as much dust as yesterday, but PM10 and PM2.5 will still likely reach the Moderate AQI category. Then on Friday and Saturday, particulate levels are forecast to return to the Good range with calmer conditions. Ozone should stay in the Good AQI category through the entire forecast period.
