Current Conditions and Humidity
It is currently Thursday morning in McKinney, where the air feels heavy and saturated. The current air temperature is 75F, but it feels like 77F due to extreme moisture levels. Relative humidity has reached 100%, and the dew point sits at 75F, creating oppressively humid conditions.
The sky is cloudy, and winds are light at 3 mph, with gusts reaching 13 mph. This level of saturation means the air holds a significant amount of water vapor, making the environment feel much warmer than the thermometer indicates.
