Forecast Discussion: Forecast Discussion for May 23 to May 28, 2013: An unusually cold upper level trough remains nearly stationary over the West Coast resulting in below normal temperatures, a well-mixed atmosphere and occasionally breezy conditions. This well mixed scenario is favorable for air quality with AQIs in most areas remaining in the GOOD air quality category. However, some areas in the Salinas Valley may continue to see PM related AQIs reach the upper GOOD to lower MODERATE categories due to afternoon wind-blown fugitive dust.
