McKinney listeners, let’s dive right into the latest happenings across town as we roll through this bright Wednesday, November 19. This morning kicked off warm and a bit muggy, with temperatures rising quickly through the 70s and topping out near 79 by midday, according to WeatherShogun. Humidity hovered above 90 percent for much of the early hours, and there was an almost 70 percent chance of rain, so if you’re headed out, keep an umbrella handy. Winds have been fairly light, nudging along at about 8 miles per hour, giving us that southerly Texas breeze that keeps the air moving but the flags flying steady.
Allergy sufferers are feeling it – the pollen levels have remained moderate in the McKinney area, reported by Pollen.com, thanks to high humidity and those swirling southern winds. It’s mostly ragweed and a touch of grass pollen still clinging on before the first true cold snap shakes them loose. So if you’re sneezing more than usual this morning, you’re not alone.
On the bright side, air quality is holding strong in the good range, especially for folks in Collin County. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality confirms we’re staying safely out of the moderate or concerning levels, so outdoor activities today get the green light.
Turning to high school sports, McKinney Boyd’s volleyball team battled hard last night in the regional semifinals but just fell short in five thrilling sets to Plano West, ending an impressive playoff run. Meanwhile, the McKinney Lions football squad is prepping for Friday's playoff showdown, coming off a 27-14 victory over Allen last week. Expect a big turnout and even bigger energy at the stadium.
Elsewhere around town, there’s a buzz with holiday prep as shops on the historic square gear up for this weekend’s tree-lighting ceremony. City crews are stringing up the lights, so the evening stroll downtown promises extra sparkle.
