Synopsis and Discussion

Air quality levels should just remain in the YELLOW range as daytime concentrations have improved but nighttime levels are enough to keep averages YELLOW. High pressure will continue to slide east as winds shift from the north around to the east and then southwest by Monday evening. This will help AQI levels hold in the lower YELLOW range Monday as AQI readings increase over the next couple days. Temperatures will also respond to the southerly wind flow and hold in the 60s as a strong low develops over the Great Lakes by Tuesday. This strong cold front will feed colder air into the Triad by the Thanksgiving holiday. (Bodenhamer)
