A typical fall-like pollutant pattern is expected through Friday. As winds calm Tuesday night, dry air will allow substantial radiative cooling at night. This pattern will persist through Friday. Radiative cooling will stabilize the surface layer with a surface inversion, allowing pollutants to increase. By sunrise, and an hour or two thereafter, fine particle concentrations will reach their daily peak. This will be followed by increased mixing with sunlight and winds and also falling concentration levels. The fluctuating concentrations will average out to the upper Good to lower Moderate AQI range for daily averages. The higher morning, lower afternoon fine particle pollution pattern will persist through Friday this week. With the caveat that morning concentrations will be higher/highest of the day, Good AQI is expected Wednesday, with low-Moderate AQI Thursday and Friday, for the daily average forecast concentrations.
