Forecast Discussion:

Generally mild weather is expected this week: skies will be sunny and temperatures steadily in the 90s. The warmest temperatures (mid-90s) are expected in the middle of the week. Winds will also be out of the north over the next several days, occasionally breezy. Winds look to be the strongest Thursday morning.

Air quality-wise, the northerly winds are expected to help reduce the chance for ozone to move into the Yuma area from the west. Thus, ozone is forecast to continue in the Good Air Quality Index (AQI) category. In regards to PM10 (dust), blowing dust may be possible on Thursday morning with the stronger northerly winds. As a result, hourly forecast PM10 levels have been increased accordingly. We'll continue to monitor Thursday's wind forecast for any changes.
