The highest AQ index in Oklahoma (as of 9:00 CDT) is currently the Oklahoma City area. Particle Pollution (PM2.5) is measuring at 42 (Good). This means air quality is satisfactory, and air pollution poses little or no risk.
Over the next few days, the highest Ozone (OZONE) will be in the Ardmore 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.
Scattered rain showers wash some pollution from the atmosphere. A storm on the Canadian prairies, however, will induce stronger southerly winds, which will bring moist maritime air and ozone pollution from Texas into Oklahoma. When sunshine persists through the afternoon in or downwind of an urban area, ozone may reach the moderate category. On Monday, the southerly winds will diminish, and with only isolated rain showers, ozone may build well into the moderate category in urban areas. Scattered showers will resume next week and lead to an improvement in air quality.
