Synopsis and Discussion

Good air quality remains in place across the area on Tuesday. Winds are expected to shift out of the southwest for the next couple of days out ahead of a front that will sweep through during the second half of Thursday. Many fires are visible on satellite across the Deep South and as that smoke becomes entrained in the air mass that will be streaming into the Triad, particle pollution levels are expected to increase to the lower Code Yellow range tomorrow. With rainfall on Thursday and some cleaner air filtering in late in the day, daily averages are expected to net out in the upper Code Green range and good air quality will continue to round out the workweek.
