Current forecast models from meteorological agencies indicate a daytime high in Moscow near 26–27°C on May 17, driven by a warm air mass advected from the south under mostly cloudy skies with scattered showers. These conditions limit peak solar heating while allowing brief clearing intervals that could push the maximum slightly higher or hold it at the lower end of the range. Ensemble guidance shows modest spread due to uncertainty in rainfall timing and cloud persistence, with historical May averages around 18–20°C providing context for the above-normal warmth. Traders assign the highest implied probabilities to 26°C and 27°C because resolution hinges on the precise hourly maximum recorded by official stations, a threshold sensitive to short-term convective developments.

The resolution source for this market will be information from NOAA, specifically the highest reading under the "Temp" column on the specified date once information is finalized for all hours on that date, available here: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=UUWW
To toggle between Fahrenheit and Celsius, click the "Switch to Metric Units" button until the relevant table displays °C.
This market can not resolve to "Yes" until data for this date has been finalized.
The resolution source for this market measures temperatures to whole degrees Celsius (eg, 9°C). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
Any revisions to temperatures recorded after data is finalized for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.
