Light Saharan dust over Oklahoma today will precede widespread rain showers on Saturday.  The precipitation will wash away pollution and restore good air quality.  Next week, scattered showers will persist, and a plume of Saharan dust may reach Oklahoma.  Ozone may reach the moderate category if sunshine lasts through the afternoon near and downwind of urban areas between showers.  The moisture will keep temperatures slightly below normal for midsummer.
