Current Air Quality & Forecast
Air Quality Forecast
June 8 – June 12: A low-pressure has moved into the region, introducing seasonably cooler air and strong atmospheric ventilation. Temperatures along the coast will range from lows in the 50s to highs in the 70s. Inland areas will see wider variation with highs mostly in the 80s, and parts of San Benito County and southern Monterey County may crest 100 degrees later in the week. Marine breezes will peak during the afternoon, generating wind speeds around 10 mph and localized gusts up to 20 mph. Relative humidity and moisture accumulation will be low, and no precipitation is expected other than isolated coastal drizzle. Strong ventilation will help keep PM2.5 (smoke) AQIs remain at GOOD, but increased winds and dry conditions may elevate PM10 (dust) AQIs to MODERATE. Ozone levels should remain below State standards and therefore ozone AQIs will remain GOOD.
