Forecast Discussion:

It may be late August, but we're not out of the summer quite yet. This week will be a hot one, prompting the National Weather Service to issue an Extreme Heat Warning for the duration of the week. The monsoon will also continue to remain active, with high day-to-day variability. Thus, thunderstorms will be possible in/around the area on any given day.

Air quality-wise, ozone is forecast in the Moderate AQI category each day, fluctuating based on nearby storm activity and any leftover cloud cover in the mornings.

PM10 (dust) and PM2.5 (smoke) could be briefly elevated at times if storm-related winds move into the area in the afternoons/evenings. However, both pollutants are forecast in the Good AQI category each day for now.

Check back again tomorrow morning for the latest!
