The highest AQ index in Oklahoma (as of 21:00 CDT) is currently the Tulsa area. Particle Pollution (PM2.5) is measuring at 54 (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.
Southerly winds brought light Mesoamerican smoke to Oklahoma overnight, but ample moisture will contribute to scattered thunderstorms overnight. West of the dryline, strong winds and mostly sunny skies will contribute to very high fire danger, loft locally unhealthy dust, and allow ozone to rise into the moderate category. After the thunderstorms, a sharp cold front will bring a clean, dry air mass and restore good air quality. Prescribed and agricultural burning on the Flint Hills in may result in widespread smoke in parts of northeastern Oklahoma until southerly winds will return early next week and blow it away. The dry and sunny weather may result in moderate ozone until subtropical moisture and scattered showers return toward the middle of next week.
