PM2.5 Forecast for Beijing – Monday, August 4, 2014


We're back!  And just in time for a chance at some decent air quality for the first time in a week.  We should see the pollution falling during the morning hours, possibly leaving us at Good/Moderate AQI readings for a large part of the day.  We say possibly because the rainy conditions may spoil the clearing skies and hold in some of that pollution.  In any case, we should see the pollution climbing again in the evening. likely back toward Unhealthy conditions. 

EXTENDED FORECAST

TUESDAY, August 5:  We have a small chance that decent air quality could hold over into Tuesday morning.  Absent that, look for about average conditions (Unhealthy, generally) throughout the day. 

WEDNESDAY, August 6:  Wednesday should keep us at average conditions again:  AQI readings mostly at Unhealthy throughout the day.

THURSDAY, August 7:  More of the same for Thursday, and there's a chance that conditions will be worse than average.
