Discussion

Monday 3/15/10
Moderate to strong winds and low background levels should help to keep air quality in the "Good" range statewide.

Tuesday 3/16/10
Moderate winds and low background levels should help to keep air quality in the "Good" range statewide.

Wednesday 3/17/10 - Outlook
Moderate winds and low background levels should help to keep air quality in the "Good" range statewide.

Thursday 3/18/10 - Outlook
Winds may be light enough and background levels high enough for ozone to reach "Moderate" or possibly higher levels in the Houston and Beaumont/Port Arthur areas in the afternoon.   Fine particulate could also reach "Moderate" levels in parts of the Houston area with highest concentrations in the morning and evening. Elsewhere in the state, moderate to strong winds and low background levels should help to keep air quality in the "Good" range.
