Forecast Discussion: Monday, May 20: Light to moderate south-southwesterly winds ahead of a slowly approaching low-pressure system will gradually transport regional pollutants into the Mahoning Valley, enhancing particle production. Despite partly cloudy skies limiting ozone formation, AQI levels will be low-Moderate for particles. Tuesday, May 21: Light to moderate southerly winds will continue to transport pollutants and moisture into the Youngstown-Warren, region, aiding particle formation and yielding low-Moderate AQI levels. Wednesday and Thursday, as the low-pressure system gradually moves through the Great Lakes region, southerly winds will transport additional pollutants and humid air into the Mahoning Valley, supporting particle formation. Therefore, despite mostly cloudy skies and scattered showers inhibiting ozone formation, AQI levels will be Moderate on both days. Friday and Saturday, winds will shift to northerly behind the departing low-pressure system, bringing clean, dry air into the Youngstown-Warren region and dispersing pollutants. These conditions will lead to Good AQI levels on both days. |
