Synopsis and Discussion

Ozone and particle pollution levels are hovering in the upper code GREEN and low code YELLOW range, Monday. A frontal boundary will approach and push through the region late Tuesday, ushering in a slightly cooler, drier air mass for Wednesday and Thursday. Particle pollution buildup ahead of the front, will help to keep readings in the code YELLOW range, Tuesday. Higher humidity and afternoon clouds and storms, ahead of the front, will limit ozone to code GREEN. Initially, behind the front, Wednesday, the air quality will drop back to code GREEN, but increased ozone production, Thursday, may push ozone levels back to low code YELLOW (GENTRY).
