Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects deep uncertainty in forecast models for Hong Kong's lowest temperature at the Observatory on May 19, split evenly between 19°C or below and 29°C or higher amid an approaching trough of low pressure noted in the Hong Kong Observatory's (HKO) latest 9-day outlook. Recent ensemble runs from GFS and ECMWF diverge sharply: bearish scenarios feature cold air advection, increased cloud cover, and northerly winds driving nocturnal cooling below climatological May norms of 24°C, while bullish paths show the trough stalling or weakening under subtropical ridging, sustaining humid southerlies and urban heat for elevated minimums. No confirmed cold surge yet, but HKO's normal-to-above-normal seasonal temperature forecast adds bimodal risk; watch daily updates and afternoon model refreshes for shifts 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 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.
