Synopsis and Discussion

Air quality levels continue to be in the GREEN range as northeast winds push clean, cool air into our region. The eastern part of this air mass will continue to wedge into the Triad and keep temperatures in the 70s and skies overcast. Little will change for Sunday but we could see a brief break in the cloud cover but AQI levels should remain GREEN. More sun should return Monday as this air mass slides east and centers more over the northeast. Higher PM readings are holding in the northwestern part of this air mass right now but there is a chance it could rotate around the center of this high and reach the Triad next week so stay tuned for updates.
