Synopsis and Discussion

Air quality levels continue to be in the GREEN range as a cool northwest wind helps temperatures remain in the upper 60s. High pressure will slowly drift south and east over the next couple days as winds become light and variable so expect AQI readings so slowly increase through the weekend, reaching the low YELLOW range Saturday. A low will develop in the southern plains and eventually slide east, introducing increased chances for rain Monday. A wet pattern will take hold over the Triad for most of next week as another low develops and affects the middle part of the week. (Bodenhamer)
