Dispersion remains generally
FAIR to GOOD today as temperatures start to decrease around the area.
The 26th and 27th,
POOR dispersion is expected across most of the area with cooler temperatures
associated with an incoming low pressure system: the main exception is in
eastern Montana, where higher winds will keep dispersion EXCELLENT. Portions of
southern Idaho stay warmer and remain GOOD to VERY GOOD.
Increasing temperatures will
gradually increase dispersion early next week, with most airsheds VERY GOOD to
EXCELLENT for the last three days of the forecast. West-central Idaho is the
only area that remains POOR through May 1st.
