Air quality issues should dissipate in advance of an unsettled weather week.
Upper-air flow brought more haze into the area Sunday, the direct result of more wildfire activity in the Pacific Northwest and Canada. Airnow.gov says air quality has been unhealthy for sensitive groups since mid-afternoon Sunday, although TV-13 meteorologist Doug Meyers says that trend should end Monday.
Storm chances begin Monday night and continue all the way through the upcoming weekend. Portions of Greenwood County have a marginal risk for severe wind early Tuesday, with parts of Coffey and Greenwood counties in a marginal risk for severe activity Tuesday. The best chance of rainfall begins Friday night and continues through at least part of Saturday.
