Synopsis and Discussion

Air quality levels are in the YELLOW range as a dry cold front slides through the Triad and allows a new air mass to move over the Mid-Atlantic States. Winds will shift around to the northeast as this new air mass slides east. AQI readings will improve but expect the average for Monday to hold in the low YELLOW range. This air mass will continue to drift east as the week progresses and temperatures will rise into the upper 60s for Tuesday and Wednesday. Expect AQI levels to increase farther into the YELLOW range by Christmas as warm weather takes hold of the Triad. (Bodenhamer)
