Forecast Discussion:
Most of the ozone monitors in the Phoenix area ended up in the mid-to-upper Moderate AQI range, with one monitor barely managing to peak into the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups category. There is a weak mid-level trough to our west that should increase ventilation and help lower ozone levels. We forecast ozone to drop into the mid Moderate range through the weekend. We then forecast ozone to trend up a little early next week with a strong ridge over the west coast, but decent mid-level winds should prevent ozone from increasing too much.PM10 levels this morning are rather high under these stagnant weather conditions. Fortunately, that should improve by late morning and be fine through the afternoon. We don't anticipate PM10 concentrations to be as high over the weekend with better ventilation and less dust-generating work activities. However, highest concentrations will continue to be during the morning and evening hours. PM10 will likely return to the Moderate category next Monday under calmer conditions and a return to normal work week activities. PM2.5 is forecast to stay in the Good range through the weekend, then like PM10, return to the Moderate range early next week.
