McKinney, Texas is buzzing with energy today, April 2, 2025. The weather is a mix of sunshine and potential evening thunderstorms. Temperatures are expected to reach a pleasant high of 82°F during the day, dipping to 64°F tonight. A UV Index of 7 calls for sunscreen if you’re spending time outdoors, and while the wind is steady at 14 mph, conditions are perfect for springtime activities.

Air quality is in the "Good to Moderate" range, making it safe for most people to enjoy outdoor plans. In great news for allergy sufferers, the pollen count is negligible—no tree, weed, or grass pollen to worry about. For sensitive groups, though, lingering light particulate matter from agricultural activities in surrounding states might cause minor irritation.

In sports, McKinney Boyd High School celebrated a win last night in baseball, defeating their rival Plano East 5-4 in a nail-biting extra inning finish. Over at McKinney High, the girls' soccer team advanced in the state playoffs after a decisive 3-1 victory against Denton Ryan, sparking school-wide celebrations.

While April 11 marks the highly anticipated Arts in Bloom festival downtown, McKinney residents can enjoy the quiet before the festivities today. The event is set to feature over 120 artists, live music, and wine tastings. Admission is free, so mark your calendars.

Whether you’re cheering for local sports, heading outdoors, or just savoring springtime in McKinney, today has plenty of reasons to celebrate.
