FORECAST SUMMARY:
Monday November 8th, 2021, through Monday November 15th, 2021
PM-2.5: 24-hour average Fine Particulate concentrations are expected to Moderate early in the week transitioning to Good by mid-week and enduring through the weekend.
FORECAST DISCUSSION
Southerly winds will keep the Lower Peninsula running in the Moderate range for Fine Particulates during the early in the work week. Light, northernly winds should help clean out the atmosphere during late Tuesday and Wednesday for mostly Good to Low Moderate in most places in the State.
The biggest weather event of the week will come mid-week with a strong Fall storm currently forming out over the Pacific. Winds will turn southerly in advance of the Thursday frontal passage which could push Fine Particulates briefly back into the Low Moderate range. Once the front has passed Thursday afternoon and evening, cleaner air will follow which should keep our Air Quality mostly Good going into the remainder of the work week and weekend.
EXTENDED FORECAST:
Air Quality is expected to be mostly Good to start the next work week.
