Forecast Discussion
Friday, July 3, 2009, 11am

SYNOPSIS: A low pressure over the northeast moves to Quebec on Saturday forcing a cold front across our area. Drier weather arrives Sunday and Monday as the low moves off. Another area of low pressure arrives with scattered showers on Tuesday and Wednesday. High pressure returns with dry weather on Thursday.

AIR QUALITY: Pollutant levels will stay in the good range across much of the state from now through the weekend. Some low moderate levels of ozone and fine particles may creep in along coastal locations on Friday and Saturday but overall conditions should remain good.
