Hong Kong Observatory's latest 9-day forecast, updated May 15, projects an overnight low near 24°C for May 16 amid a lingering trough of low pressure over the south China coast, driving mainly cloudy skies, showers, and high humidity that limit radiative cooling. This positions 24°C as the market-implied frontrunner at 52% trader consensus, with 23°C (27.5%) and 25°C (28%) close behind, aligning with the official 23–26°C range from the May 12 update refined by recent model runs. No cold surge or monsoon influence is expected, consistent with May climatology where lows average 24°C; probabilities below 23°C remain negligible (<1%) due to persistent moist conditions. Watch for evening forecast tweaks as the resolution window approaches midnight.

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 to "Yes" until data for this date has been finalized.
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 finalized for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.
