Synopsis and Discussion
Low clouds and fog this morning helped to trap particle pollution near the surface. As a result, daily fine particle pollution averages should be in the upper code GREEN range. Ozone readings are in the mid-code GREEN range on Tuesday. Increasing clouds are expected on Wednesday as Tropical Cyclone Zeta approaches the Gulf Coast, likely as a hurricane. The remnants of the system will track through the mid-South on Thursday bringing elevated rain chances to the Triad. AQI readings may hold in the upper code GREEN range for one more day before falling to the low code GREEN range on Thursday. By Friday, skies will begin to clear out but it will be breezy. With a clean air mass being transported into the area and plenty of mixing, air quality will remain GOOD to round out the workweek. (Perrotte)
