Daily Air Quality Forecast for Lake Charles, Louisiana

Sunday, smoke from regional agricultural burns will increase particle levels in some areas. However, as surface high pressure builds to the north, light northerly winds will gradually disperse pollutants and carry cleaner air into Louisiana. Additionally, cooler temperatures and clouds will limit ozone formation. As a result, AQI levels will range from Good to low-Moderate. Monday and Tuesday, as surface high pressure shifts southward over Louisiana, decreasing northerly winds will hinder dispersion. In addition, smoke from regional agricultural burns will continue to contribute to particle levels. Therefore, AQI levels will be high-Good to low-Moderate on both days.
