Daily Air Quality Forecast for West Monroe, Louisiana

Tuesday, upper-level high pressure will reduce vertical mixing in the atmosphere. In addition, mostly sunny skies and temperatures around 90-95F will enhance ozone development, while calm to light south-southeasterly winds will limit dispersion. Therefore, AQI levels will be high-Moderate in Baton Rouge and New Orleans, with low- to mid-Moderate AQI levels expected elsewhere. Wednesday, southeasterly winds will strengthen, aiding pollutant dispersion in the Bayou State. However, partly to mostly sunny skies and warm temperatures will continue to support ozone production. Thus, AQI levels will be low- to mid-Moderate statewide. Thursday, increasing clouds and scattered thunderstorms in southern Louisiana will reduce ozone production. However, light southeasterly winds will limit pollutant dispersion. These conditions will yield high-Good to low-Moderate AQI levels.
