Hong Kong's minimum temperature on August 12 hinges on lingering effects from Severe Tropical Storm Dolphin, positioned northeast of the territory and transitioning to a low-pressure area. Persistent cloud cover and elevated humidity from the southwest monsoon are limiting overnight radiative cooling, supporting minima clustered around 27–29°C according to Hong Kong Observatory guidance. Subtle differences among these outcomes stem from forecast variations in shower timing, wind speeds near 10–20 km/h, and boundary-layer mixing that can either trap heat or allow modest drops. Seasonal outlooks indicate normal to above-normal temperatures overall, yet the storm's remnants introduce short-term uncertainty in diurnal ranges compared to typical August baselines near 26°C. Updated model runs and the next HKO briefing will refine these probabilities ahead of resolution.

The resolution source for this market will be information from the Hong Kong Observatory, specifically the "Absolute Daily Min (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.
