AQI Forecast
Note: Hover over datapoints on the graph for more information.
Ozone and particle pollution are both in the Code Yellow range today with a stagnant continental air mass in place. This air mass will continue to promote Code Yellow AQI readings to round out the workweek ahead of a cold front that will sweep through late in the day tomorrow. Once the front sweeps through, cleaner air will filter into the area and upper Code Green ozone and particle pollution are anticipated on both weekend days. High pressure building overhead on Sunday definitely pushes the forecast risk in the higher direction with regard to particle pollution and it would not be surprising to see at least some Code Yellow hourly averages, and potentially even the daily average.
