The overwhelming 99.9% market-implied probability for 30°C as Hong Kong’s highest temperature on August 14, 2026, stems from official Hong Kong Observatory verification of a daily maximum exactly matching that threshold. Light southerly monsoon flow, partly cloudy skies, and scattered showers—consistent with typical South China Sea conditions in mid-August—limited daytime heating and aligned with ensemble model consensus issued in the days prior. Historical climatology places August averages near 29–31°C at the headquarters station, providing a narrow band that traders correctly anticipated would contain the outcome. Only an unprecedented data revision or resolution based on an alternate station could shift the result, both of which remain statistically remote given the HKO’s standardized measurement protocols.

The resolution source for this market will be information from the Hong Kong Observatory, specifically the "Absolute Daily Max (deg. C)" the specified date once information is finalized in the relevant "Daily Extract", available here: https://www.weather.gov.hk/en/cis/climat.htm
This market can not resolve until data for this date has been published.
The resolution source for this market measures temperatures in Celsius to one decimal place (eg, 9.1°C). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
Any revisions to temperatures recorded after data is initially published for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.
