Daily Air Quality Forecast for West Milton, Pennsylvania

Current Conditions: At 2 p.m. EST this Friday afternoon, a cold rain is affecting the region. Fine particle (PM2.5) concentrations have risen into the moderate range with the lack of surface flow. Better air quality returns over the weekend, then moderate PM2.5 resumes Sunday night into Monday with milder air and reduced dispersion. Here are the forecast details: *** Saturday’s forecast: Breezy and cold Saturday with clouds yielding to sunshine. A northwest breeze will bring better dispersion, thus PM2.5 will average in the good range. High temperatures will struggle to reach the 30-degree mark. *** Sunday’s forecast: Mostly cloudy Sunday as a weak area of low pressure passes to our north. A couple of snow showers are possible in the afternoon. A shift in winds to the south may bring a PM2.5 increase with averages remaining in the high end of the good range. *** Monday’s forecast: Milder Monday with southwest winds pushing temperatures into the middle 40s. Light flow and higher humidity for most of the day may result in PM2.5 into the moderate range. *** Extended forecast: Good air quality returns Tuesday with drier air moving in behind a cold front and it will not be as mild. Low pressure then moves northeastward Wednesday into Thursday with sleet or ice turning to plain rain, but details on the system remain sketchy and uncertain depending on how fast any cold air gets rooted out of valley locations and the track of the system. Air quality may return to the moderate range with warmer air overrunning cold air at the surface.---McAuliffe
