Persistent cloud cover, frequent showers, and high humidity tied to a broad low-pressure trough are keeping overnight lows elevated in Hong Kong, with official forecasts centering minimum temperatures between 26–28 °C on August 27. Dew points near 25–26 °C limit radiational cooling, while light southerly to southwesterly winds and widespread convection prevent the air mass from dropping further. This setup explains why market-implied odds cluster tightly on 27 °C and 26 °C, reflecting modest uncertainty in how much additional cooling any brief clear spells might allow before sunrise. Updated model runs and the Hong Kong Observatory’s next guidance will clarify whether conditions trend slightly cooler or remain capped near current expectations.

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.
