Daily Air Quality Forecast for Barryton, Michigan

FORECAST DISCUSSION: As Fall colors start to pop and temperatures slowly begin to cool, we enter the first weekend of October with a few sprinkles across the state, but clear skies later into today and tomorrow, Saturday. The remnants of a cold front that passed over us last night has a few rain showers and clouds hanging around. As stated prior though, clear skies will dominate the region this afternoon as a High-pressure system moves in just in time to kick off the weekend. Saturday will be a picturesque Fall day with warmer than normal temperatures well into the 70s for most areas across the state. Just as quickly as the High-pressure moves in is just as quickly as it leaves due to a Low-pressure system and associated cold front moving in late Saturday night into early Sunday morning. Northerly areas across Michigan will see more rain due to this cold front as southerly areas may see a few spotty showers, but nowhere is expected a complete washout. The cold front moves out as we approach noon on Sunday and some areas will be greeted by the sun come Sunday afternoon. Monday will see a continuation a clear skies but cooler temperatures near our normal highs as we start the first full week of October. For air quality, Ozone will continue to be a non-issue as temperatures start to cool off more and sunlight becomes less intense. PM-2.5 concentrations will hover around the low-Moderate range for the more populated areas, especially in the morning time as wind is lighter. Any residual build up will surely be cleaned out early Sunday morning as the cold front passes. In the upper levels of the atmosphere, there appears to be a light plume of wildfire smoke which will be over Michigan tomorrow and into Sunday. The smoke will stay in the upper atmosphere but may cause milky skies and colorful sunrises and sunsets. EXTENDED FORECAST: High-pressure looks to sit over the Midwest to start off next week which will help keep the overall air quality Good.
