FORECAST SUMMARY: Saturday, July 13th, 2024 Through sunday july 14th, 2024

OZONE:

Ozone concentrations are expected to be in the Moderate (Yellow AQI) to USG (Orange AQI) range.

PM-2.5:

PM-2.5 concentrations are expected to be in the Good (Green AQI) to low-Moderate (Yellow AQI) range.

FORECAST DISCUSSION:

There is currently an Air Quality Advisory in place for southeast Michigan today for USG level Ozone concentrations expected. As we move into tomorrow, there is a chance of storms in the morning hours, but skies clear out for the west side of the state in the early afternoon. This will allow for Ozone to develop beyond the USG range by tapping into the ample sunlight, surface temperatures well into the 80s, and favorable southwest winds. Clouds look to hang around the southeast Michigan region well into the afternoon, so high-Moderate concentrations can be expected. Because of these conditions in West Michigan, I am issuing an Air Quality Advisory tomorrow for lakeshore counties from the Michigan/Indiana border up to Muskegon County.

I will be updating this forecast tomorrow, Sunday, due to similar conditions on Monday in West Michigan.

EXTENDED FORECAST:

Hot and humid conditions look to persist to start off the next work week. Air quality can be expected to be in the Moderate to USG range.
