Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects high uncertainty in London's overnight minimum temperature on May 16, with implied probabilities tightly clustered around 3–6°C (each ~24–26%) due to a recent influx of Arctic air via northerly airflow, as detailed in Met Office forecasts showing weekday lows of 6–7°C transitioning to potential radiative cooling under sunny intervals. Differentiating factors include model ensemble spread—ECMWF and GFS diverge on overnight cloud cover evolution, with clearer skies favoring deeper cools near 3–4°C via enhanced longwave radiation loss, while persistent low-level stratus or light showers could cap lows at 5–6°C. Below-average May conditions (historical norms ~8–9°C) stem from a blocking high steering cold air southward; watch Met Office's evening update and Friday model refreshes for shifts ahead of resolution using official Heathrow observations.

The resolution source for this market will be information from Wunderground, specifically the lowest temperature recorded for all times on this day by the Forecast for the London City Airport Station once information is finalized, available here: https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/gb/london/EGLC.
To toggle between Fahrenheit and Celsius, click the gear icon next to the search bar and switch the Temperature setting between °F and °C.
This market can not resolve to "Yes" until all 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.
