Northeasterly winds continue today, and will generally be out of the northeast on Friday, but wind speeds will be very light Friday. Ventilation will be fair today, then poor on Friday as the wind speeds weaken. Looking ahead to the weekend, a cold front will move through on Saturday, shifting winds to northwesterly and ushering in well below normal temperatures for Sunday into early next week. Mixing deepens on Sunday, resulting in the best ventilation of the next four days. Rain chances are low over the next week, with the only notable chance being associated with the front on Saturday (15%).
