Forecast Discussion: Thursday: AIR QUALITY ALERT! There will be quiet weather conditions for the area with clear skies and temperatures rising into the mid 90s. Active weather will be in the Great Lakes with a surface low moving eastward and Hurricane Earl approaching the Atlantic coastline. The aforementioned surface low will push a cold front through the area on Friday. Winds will be northerly and light. Dry conditions and clear skies will allow for a morning inversion to develop, which will bump up PM2.5 concentrations early in the day. PM2.5 will be in the yellow range. Ozone will rise into the orange range, prompting an air quality alert. ML
