Synopsis and Discussion

Air quality levels have returned to the YELLOW range as warm, humid air starts to push back into the state as chances for thunderstorms remain in the 20-30% range. Winds will shift around to the west and west-northwest for the next couple days, which will allow a downsloping effect from the mountains to push high temperatures into the mid 90s. Dewpoints will also increase into the low 70s and produce a very hot, humid weather pattern. This will continue to allow AQI readings to hold in the YELLOW range over the next few days as humidity levels hold ozone development in check, despite the heat. (Bodenhamer)
