Synopsis and Discussion

AQI readings are ranging from the upper Code Green range to the lower Code Yellow range across the Triad. A warm front will lift northward through the area tomorrow morning, ushering in the air mass that had been in place over the past few days. Elevated particle pollution readings are being observed across the Deep South and an increase to the mid Code Yellow range is expected here tomorrow. A cold front is slated to sweep through the area late on Saturday with a more definitive change of air mass that will provide good air quality for the latter half of the weekend. While cleaner air will arrive late in the day, daily averages are still expected to net out in the lower Code Yellow range on Saturday. (Greg Perrotte / perrotgt@forsyth.cc)
