These elevated dew points indicate a significant amount of moisture in the lower atmosphere, contributing to a muggy atmosphere even under clear skies. Winds are light, blowing at 6 mph with gusts reaching up to 13 mph.

Forecast for Today and Tomorrow

Today, McKinney will see mostly sunny skies with a high near 95F. The heat index is expected to reach as high as 102F, making it feel hotter than the actual air temperature. There is a 25% chance of precipitation, with a notable shift in conditions later in the day.
