The highest AQ index in Oklahoma (as of 16:00 CST) is currently the McAlester area. Particle Pollution (PM2.5) is measuring at 52 (Moderate). This means air quality is acceptable. However, there may be a risk for some people, particularly those who are unusually sensitive to air pollution.
Over the next few days, the highest Particle Pollution (PM10) will be in the Oklahoma City area. It is forecasted to be Moderate, meaning air quality is acceptable. However, there may be a risk for some people, particularly those who are unusually sensitive to air pollution.
After one more day of fires and locally unhealthy smoke, widespread rain showers will develop across most of Oklahoma tonight. The rain showers will extinguish the fires, wash out the particulate matter, and restore clean air for a few days. The Panhandle and northwestern counties may receive little to no precipitation. Unseasonably warm weather will persist through next week, and fires may resume. The next storm will pass on the northern Great Plains on Tuesday, and strong southwesterly winds may lead to widespread blowing dust, especially in drier northwestern Oklahoma. The next winter storm will arrive for next weekend, but parts of Oklahoma again may experience only the dry sector.
