In McKinney, Texas, the past 24 hours have been filled with a mix of important public health announcements, ongoing community activities, and the usual hustle and bustle of city life.

### Mosquito Spraying Alert
As of September 23, 2024, the City of McKinney announced that it will be spraying two areas of the city to control mosquitoes after a mosquito pool tested positive for West Nile Virus. This proactive measure is scheduled to take place on September 24 and 25, ensuring the safety and health of the community.

### Weather Update
While there hasn't been any extreme weather in the past 24 hours, the recent storms that hit North Texas, including Collin County, have left their mark. Some areas received up to 5 or 6 inches of rain, though the immediate weather forecast for McKinney today is expected to be more stable.

### Air Quality and Pollen Count
As the fall season begins, air quality in McKinney remains relatively good, with no major alerts issued. However, pollen counts can still be moderate due to the lingering presence of summer allergens. Residents with allergies should remain cautious.

### Local News
In other local news, the Collin County Sheriff's Office is investigating a incident where a man was found dead inside a McKinney home on Wednesday. The community is also coming together to support various causes, such as Meals on Wheels of Collin County, which has been distributing survival kits to seniors affected by recent severe storms.

### School and Sports
For those interested in high school sports, the McKinney Independent School District (ISD) is gearing up for new games. While specific scores from the past 24 hours are not available, the district is known for its strong athletic programs.

### Community Events
McKinney continues to be a vibrant city with a high quality of life. It was recently highlighted that five North Texas cities, including McKinney, are setting standards for quality of life in Texas. This is reflected in the various community events and initiatives that take place throughout the year.

In summary, McKinney is taking all necessary steps to ensure public health and safety, while also maintaining its vibrant community spirit and preparing for upcoming events and activities.
