Synopsis and Discussion

Air quality levels have increase well into the YELLOW range as skies are mostly cloudy and winds are light and out of the southwest. A low pressure system is over the southern plains and will keep good chances for light showers in our area through Saturday afternoon. This low will quickly move to the east and allow another air mass to slide into the Triad from the west. This air mass will bring cooler northeast winds back to NC and cool temperatures down for Sunday. Expect AQI levels to hold in the YELLOW range through the forecast period with Sunday being in the lower YELLOW range. (Bodenhamer)
