FORECAST SUMMARY: Monday, April 8, 2024, through friday, April 12, 2024

OZONE: 8-hour average Ozone concentrations will be Good (AQI Green).

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

FORECAST DISCUSSION:

Eyes will be cast skyward, today, but not for weather or Air Quality, but a rare near-total eclipse in southern Michigan.  In the Lansing area, maximum 96% coverage is expected around 3:12 PM under mostly clear skies for prime viewing.  As a bonus, Air Quality is expected to remain Good.

 A cold front will pass, during Tuesday, with little notice other than an occasional shower and a few degrees cooler. 

 The main weather feature for the week will be another cold front passing during Thursday.  This system looks to be a real soaker with the potential of over an inch of rain in most areas with some areas potentially getting near two inches.

 Throughout the week, I am expecting Air Quality to remain Good.

 EXTENDED FORECAST:

 Air Quality should be generally Good to begin the weekend.
