Synopsis and Discussion

Air quality levels have improved back into the GREEN range as cold northerly winds push cleaner air into the Triad. These winds will shift around to the west and then southwest by Friday morning. This wind direction will allow AQI readings to push back into the lower YELLOW range Friday and hold there for Saturday as well. A low will slowly develop in the deep south and track across the southeast Sunday morning. The track of the system will determine how much precipitation will affect the Triad. Either way, AQI levels should hold in the lower YELLOW range through Sunday. (Bodenhamer)
