06/16/2024 Forecast Update

FORECAST SUMMARY: Sunday, June 16, 2024, through Monday, June 17, 2024

OZONE: 8-Hour average Ozone concentrations will be trending to Moderate (AQI Yellow) in most of the interior part of the state.  An Air Quality Advisory (AQI Orange) has been issued to West and Southeast Michigan for Monday. 

PM-2.5: 24-hour average Fine Particulate concentrations are expected to remain mostly Good (AQI Green) to Moderate (AQI Yellow).

 FORECAST DISCUSSION:

Temperature and humidity will continue to increase as we begin the new week.  Temperatures in the 90’s and dew points around 70 degrees will add to the misery index for the week.  This pattern looks to persist through the week.

 With winds at all levels of the atmosphere coming from the hot southwest, Air Quality will certainly be an issue, this week.  EGLE issued an advisory for Sunday and will expand that advisory to both West and Southeast Michigan for Monday.  With conditions not expected to change, drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun as much a possible, and check up on relatives and neighbors.

  EXTENDED FORECAST:

Air Quality is expected to be Moderate to USG during the beginning of the upcoming work week.
