ATLANTA - A cold front is expected to improve the air quality in metro Atlanta Wednesday. <br>
<br>
Temperatures are expected to drop to the upper 80s with a chance of showers. The National Weather Service in Peachtree City says the chance of rain will continue for the rest of the week. <br>
<br>
The cooler temperatures and rain are expected to bring healthier air. <br>
<br>
Susan Zimmer-Dauphinee is program manager for the air protection branch of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. <br>
<br>
She says record-high 90-degree temperatures in the first eight days of this month helped to produce six unhealthy Code Orange smog days. <br>
<br>
Forecasters said July 6th was the hottest day of the year.
