If you are unusually sensitive to particle pollution, consider reducing your activity level or shorten the amount of time you are active outdoors.
Other Pollutants:
OZONE - 2 Good
Friday, a building ridge of high pressure aloft will hinder atmospheric mixing. In addition, morning and evening temperature inversions will confine pollutants near the surface, while calm to light southerly to southeasterly winds limit dispersion. However, low pollutant carryover will lead to low-Moderate particle levels. Saturday, upper-level high pressure over the state will continue to inhibit atmospheric mixing. Furthermore, a strong temperature inversion will hinder low-level mixing during the morning. However, periods of light northwesterly winds will aid dispersion and transport cleaner air into the Sacramento region during the afternoon and evening, keeping particle levels low-Moderate. Sunday, dispersion will decrease as northwesterly winds diminish in response to a surface ridge of high pressure developing over the Sacramento region. In addition, areas of fog during the morning and evening hours will promote particle formation, leading to mid-Moderate particle levels.
