PM2.5 Forecast for Beijing – Friday, August 29, 2014

Our streak of Unhealthy air quality promises to stay around for the rest of the day.

EXTENDED FORECAST

SATURDAY, August 30:  We’re likely to have our third day in a row of poor air quality on Saturday with Unhealthy or higher AQI levels for the rest of the day.

SUNDAY, August 31:  No change in the forecast for Sunday:  look for the Unhealthy conditions to continue for another day. 

MONDAY, September 1:  Monday looks like more of the same as we kick off September with Unhealthy conditions for the entire day.

PM2.5 Forecast for Beijing – Wednesday, August 27, 2014

Our hoped-for better than average conditions are in place, and it looks like there is a good chance that they will stay around for most of the day.  But at some point this afternoon or evening, we do expect the pollution levels to start increasing again. 

EXTENDED FORECAST

THURSDAY, August 28:  Thursday should bring us back to about average levels, Unhealthy for likely the entire day.

FRIDAY, August 29:  Friday should again have us at Unhealthy conditions for the entire day.

SATURDAY, August 30:  We’re likely to have our third day in a row of poor air quality on Saturday with Unhealthy or higher AQI levels for the rest of the day.

PM2.5 Forecast for Beijing – Tuesday, August 26, 2014

We've been lucky to keep better than average air quality around overnight and through the morning, and now it looks like we have a good chance that it will stay around for most of the day.  We should again see the pollution accumulate somewhat in the late afternoon and evening, but it will likely be late before we see Unhealthy conditions.

EXTENDED FORECAST

WEDNESDAY, August 27:  We’re on the fence for Wednesday's forecast.  Some of the signs point to average air quality, but there are other signs pointing toward better than average conditions.  If we have to choose, we'll go with better than average conditions as the most likely scenario for Wednesday. 

THURSDAY, August 28:  Thursday should keep the pollution around average levels, Unhealthy for likely the entire day.

FRIDAY, August 29:  Friday should again have us at Unhealthy conditions for the entire day.

PM2.5 Forecast for Beijing – Monday, August 25, 2014

So far, Sunday's good air quality has stayed around, but it is unlikely that it will stay around much longer.  Look for gradual increases in the pollution for the rest of the day, and we may or may not make it to Unhealthy before the day is over. 

EXTENDED FORECAST

TUESDAY, August 26:  Tuesday may start off with better than average air quality, but we expect to be back at Unhealthy conditions by late afternoon or early evening.

WEDNESDAY, August 27:  We’re expecting Wednesday to be about average for Beijing, so look for Unhealthy conditions for most, if not all of the day.

THURSDAY, August 28:  Thursday should keep the pollution around average levels, Unhealthy for likely the entire day.
