The highest AQ index in Oklahoma (as of 6:00 CDT) is currently the Miami area. Particle Pollution (PM2.5) is measuring at 66 (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 Ozone (OZONE) 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.
Mostly sunny skies with light breezes will foster moderate ozone formation today until scattered thunderstorms develop in the afternoon. Scattered thunderstorms will continue through Sunday, and the turbulence and precipitation will limit pollution buildup. A cold front on Sunday will bring a clean, dry air mass to Oklahoma. With ample sunshine beneath the thermal inversion, ozone will increase on Monday and Tuesday. Southerly winds will restore moisture and bring perhaps significant Mesoamerican smoke toward the middle of next week, and moderate ozone will continue beneath mostly sunny skies as temperatures rise. Scattered rain showers will return for next weekend.
