Forecast Discussion:
On this Friday morning water vapor satellite shows a ridge of high pressure over the center of the country, another area of high pressure off the West Coast, and finally, sandwiched between them, a trough of low pressure with an axis running from Southern California up through Idaho and into Canada. The trough will slowly move eastward as it weakens and lifts toward the northeast today through early Sunday. The main impact from this trough will be below-average highs today in the low 90s, with some west-northwest breezes from time to time.As the trough moves away from the state, another area of low pressure will drop southward through California this weekend and into Arizona late Sunday through Tuesday. While this system won't bring any rain to the area, it will increase southerly winds Sunday through at least Tuesday and keep afternoon highs in the mid-90s, which is not bad for the end of May!
As for air quality, with the westerly breezes today and tomorrow, expecting some ozone transport from California, so ozone is forecast to be in the Moderate AQI category. With a southerly flow moving back into the picture, ozone is expected to drop back into the Good AQI category Sunday into the first part of next week. PM-10 may see some increases with the strongest winds, but we are forecasting the 24-hour average (midnight to midnight) to remain in the Good AQI category.
Have a great weekend!
