Synopsis and Discussion

Particle pollution remains in the Moderate range on Thursday and ozone is lower in the upper Code Green range. Unsettled weather is on tap for the balance of the forecast period but the highest rain chances look to come this weekend as a cold front approaches, then sweeps through the area. The periods of clouds, showers, and storms will keep ozone readings in check through Sunday. Particle pollution will likely hover near the Code Green/Yellow threshold for the next couple of days before decreasing a bit further into the upper Code Green range on Sunday as the front finally begins to work its way through. While some hours in the lower Code Yellow range are expected for the next couple of days, daily averages are expected to net out in the upper Code Green range. (Perrotte)
