Daily Air Quality Forecast for Felton, California

September 22 – September 26: Building high-pressure over the region has allowed for a robust marine layer to form along the coast and as far as King City. As the day progresses, expect marine stratus to give way to sunny skies and warmer temperatures. This pattern should continue until the weekend when low-pressure from the PNW migrates down the coast and compresses the marine layer. This will also bring a cooldown in temperatures as well. Temperatures will range from the low-50s to the high-70s at the coast and high-40s to mid-90s inland. Despite high temperatures inland, ozone production will be at normal levels; therefore, ozone AQIs will remain GOOD. As high-pressure builds, expect a decrease in atmospheric mixing. As a result, PM2.5 (smoke) AQIs may reach MODERATE levels. 20 mph wind speeds with up to 30 mph gusts in the Salinas Valley could bring PM10 (dust) AQIs to MODERATE. However, moisture form a robust marine layer will more than likely keep PM10 AQIs to a minimum.
