AQI: Good (0 - 50) AQI: Good (0 - 50)
Air quality is considered satisfactory, and air pollution poses little or no risk.
AQI: Moderate (51 - 100) AQI: Moderate (51 - 100)
Air quality is acceptable; however, for some pollutants there may be a moderate health concern for a very small number of people who are unusually sensitive to air pollution.
AQI: Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (101 - 150) AQI: Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups (101 - 150)
Although general public is not likely to be affected at this AQI range, people with lung disease, older adults and children are at a greater risk from exposure to ozone, whereas persons with heart and lung disease, older adults and children are at greater risk from the presence of particles in the air.
AQI: Unhealthy (151 - 200) AQI: Unhealthy (151 - 200)
Everyone may begin to experience health effects members of sensitive groups may experience more serious health effects.
AQI:Very Unhealthy (201 - 300) AQI: Very Unhealthy (201 - 300)
Health alert: everyone may experience more serious health effects.
AQI: Hazardous(301 - 500) AQI: Hazardous (301 - 500)

Forecast Discussion: FORECAST SUMMARY: Monday, July 16th, 2018 through Wednesday, July 18th, 2018 Ozone: 8-hour Ozone concentrations will be generally Good throughout the state. PM-2.5: 24-hour Fine Particulate concentrations will also be generally Good. FORECAST DISCUSSION After several weeks of hot, muggy weather and associated Action Day Advisories, the upcoming week promises to give us a break from poor Air Quality and provide us with friendlier weather. A cold front will be passing through the state during Monday. Convective activity and scattered storms are not out of the question. Air Quality should be generally Good as the front passes. Tuesday and Wednesday should be considerably cooler and drier as Canadian air pushes in behind the front yielding Good Air Quality throughout the state. Thursday and Friday will likely have the best chance to see numbers creep back into the Moderate range as we get on the back side of the high pressure and southerly winds start pushing the lower continental air mass back into the state. That said, the chances for elevated ozone are remote and Moderate is likely the worst we could see. Another cold front should pass through the state late Friday/early Saturday. That will provide another clean out and a cooler weekend. Good Air Quality should persist through the weekend. While the upcoming week looks promising for generally Good Air Quality, the regional forecasters have opted to take another look at the models Wednesday morning to make sure Thursday does not give us any surprises. EXTENDED FORECAST: Air Quality is expected to be Good to Low Moderate on Thursday and Friday. Forecast updated by Jim Haywood: Monday, July 16th, 2018 Next forecast update: Wednesday, July 18th, 2018
