Synopsis and Discussion

Particle pollution remains low code YELLOW, Monday, with high pressure settled over the region. A strong cold front will begin to approach the Triad, later Tuesday, crossing the region, later Wednesday. Ahead of the front, clouds and a few light showers will move through the area. Particle pollution may increase, slightly, Tuesday, into the mid code YELLOW range with a buildup, ahead of the front. As the front crosses the state, Wednesday, a cleaner air mass will filter into the region. Higher particle pollution readings, early Wednesday, will drop back later in the evening, resulting in a daily average of low code YELLOW. GOOD air quality will return, Thursday, as the new, clean, air mass takes over (GENTRY).
