Forecast Summary:
Monday, June 6th, 2022, through Friday, June 10th, 2022
OZONE: 8-hour average Ozone concentrations are expected to be generally Good through the week; Moderates may return early next week.
PM-2.5: 24-hour average Fine Particulate will range between Good and low-mid Moderate.
FORECAST DISCUSSION:
On and off systems this week will keep chances for precipitation in the forecast. There could be a break Thursday with high pressure moving in, however, a system to the south brings a return to rain chances for the end of the work week. Temperatures will be ranging a bit cooler, especially at upper levels. Because of this, ozone is not much of a concern and readings should be mostly Good with only a few low-Moderates through Friday. Fine particulate through the period will range from middle Good to low Moderate.
High pressure moves in late in the week and there is a hint at a warmup early next week. If this forecast pans out, more widespread Moderate ozone may return next Monday and/or Tuesday.
EXTENDED FORECAST:
Extended forecast models show warmer conditions moving in for the long-range period. This forecast will be updated Friday to detail expected air quality for the weekend into early next week.
