McKinney Saturday: Warm, Cloudy Skies, Allergy Update, and Upcoming Sports and Recreation

Good morning McKinney and happy July 5th. If you stepped outside early today you noticed the warmth and humidity are back, with temperatures starting in the mid-70s and headed toward a high of about 89 degrees, according to Weather Underground. The skies are mostly cloudy, and the sun will set tonight at 8:40 pm, giving everyone plenty of daylight to enjoy those summer Saturday plans. There’s a slight breeze from the north and overall, the conditions are similar to yesterday, so if you liked Friday’s weather, today should feel familiar.

For those who spent the Fourth of July at the Red, White and BOOM celebration, the cloudy evening may have made those fireworks look even more dramatic. The city’s signature event brought out families for parades, block parties, live music, and the big fireworks finale at Craig Ranch. McKinney’s city council is also keeping things lively, having just approved new commercial zoning near Trails at Craig Ranch, which means more local shops or offices could be coming soon, as reported by Spreaker’s McKinney News and Info Daily.

On the health front, allergy sufferers in town are getting a bit of a break to start July. Pollen.com reports that tree and grass pollen counts are moderate, meaning you can likely enjoy the outdoors, but sensitive listeners should still take precautions. Meanwhile, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality forecasts air quality in the Dallas-Fort Worth area to remain at the upper end of the good range, with a slight chance of briefly hitting moderate in the afternoon, largely due to light winds and some lingering Saharan dust.

Turning to McKinney sports, it’s been a quiet week for high school summer leagues with no major scores reported yet, but local teams are preparing for a busy late July and August. For those looking forward to new recreation options, construction on the Cannon Beach Surf Park is expected to start this year, with hopes to catch waves by the end of 2026.
