Listeners, here’s your all-access update on the past twenty-four hours in McKinney, Texas. Kicking off Saturday, September 20, it’s been a warm start to the weekend with abundant sunshine and highs expected to reach the mid-80s. Light winds are pairing with that sunshine to make it feel downright summery across North Texas, but if you or someone in the family is sensitive, heads up—today is an Ozone Action Day for the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality notes that air quality could reach the lower end of the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups range this afternoon, so those with asthma or respiratory issues should consider limiting outdoors activities until evening.
Wildfire smoke from the Pacific Northwest and Canada is still drifting over North Central Texas, but authorities say it’s mostly light, so visibility and fine particulate matter in McKinney remain in the moderate range. On the pollen front, Weather Underground reports ragweed and grass are leading the charge, with pollen levels tracking in the moderate zone. Those with allergies, keep tissues handy. Relative humidity is staying a bit elevated due to gentle winds pulling moisture in from the Gulf, so expect it to feel muggy by midday.
Turning to the heart of community pride—high school sports—Fridays are always electric in McKinney. The McKinney High Lions roared on their home turf, clinching a 28 to 17 win over Allen in last night’s rivalry football match, with sophomore quarterback Jordan Malone tossing three touchdowns and the defense pulling off a crucial interception in the fourth quarter. Over at Boyd High, the Broncos came up just short against Prosper, dropping a close-fought 21 to 18 contest despite a spirited comeback in the final minutes. The North McKinney Lady Bulldogs volleyball squad swept their district opener with a 3 sets to none victory against Plano West, setting the pace for a promising league campaign.
For families looking for activities this Saturday, it’s a great day to hit the local farmers’ markets or explore Towne Lake Park—just stay hydrated and remember the ozone alert if you plan strenuous exercise outside. As always, be aware that light urban haze might linger into the afternoon.
