Current Air Quality & Forecast
Air Quality Forecast
March 27 – March 31: A low-pressure system and associated cold front situated off the PNW is generating the cooler temperatures we’ve been experiencing since Wednesday. Scattered showers across the region will bring minimal amounts of precipitation as this system persists. Another region of low-pressure will follow behind and bring more impactful showers to the Central Coast beginning Sunday and through the first half of next week. Expect gusty afternoons (10-20 mph) especially at higher elevations while unsettled weather lasts. Temperatures will range from the mid-40s to the low-70s at the coast and low-40s to the high-60s inland. Cool temperatures indicate ozone levels will remain below State standards, therefore ozone AQIs will remain GOOD. PM2.5 (smoke) AQIs will also be GOOD due to unsettled conditions and thus good ventilation. Additionally, PM10 (dust) AQIs will be GOOD due to moist conditions.
