FORECAST SUMMARY:
Monday, April 6th, 2020 through Monday, April 13th, 2020
PM-2.5: 24-hour average Fine Particulate concentrations will be a mixture of Good and Low Moderate.
FORECAST DISCUSSION
We will enjoy a couple more days of warmer weather before temperatures cool back down for the second half of the week.
Monday will see some sun before an approaching warm front causes clouds to develop from overriding warm air over cooler air. As the warm front approaches and passes during Tuesday, we can expect warm temperatures around 60 along with some shower activity. The warmer, moist air will also increase the likelihood of Low Moderate fine particulates in the southern half of the state.
The cold front associated with the same low pressure system will pass Tuesday night providing more shower activity. I expect clearing behind the front and a mostly pleasant day during Wednesday with some localized Low Moderate conditions but mostly Good.
The biggest change occurs Wednesday night with the passage of a stronger cold front. Cooler and cleaning air will filter in on the back side. This will drop our temperatures 10-15 degrees below normal and will provide Good Air Quality. This cooler, cleaner air should persist into the weekend.
EXTENDED FORECAST:
Air Quality should be mostly Good going into the next work week.
