Air Quality Forecast

April 24 – April 27: Low-pressure from the north, increases chances of precipitation this weekend, however GFS modeling indicates probabilities will more than likely not exceed 30%.  Therefore, if there is some precipitation at the Central Coast, it will not be impactful.  Temperatures will range from the high-40s to the mid-60s at the coast and mid-40s to mid-70s inland.  Ozone levels should remain below State standards; therefore, ozone AQIs will remain GOOD. Moist conditions will keep PM10 (dust) AQIs in the Salinas Valley at GOOD as well. As low-pressure remains, expect ventilation to remain adequate enough to maintain PM2.5 AQIs (smoke) at GOOD levels.
