Recent forecasts for Paris highlight a cooling trend driven by incoming maritime air and increased cloud cover, moderating peak temperatures ahead of August 22. Official guidance and ensemble models from sources like Météo-France point to a daily maximum in the 23–24°C range under partly cloudy conditions with a slight shower risk, consistent with late-summer climatology where highs typically decline from mid-month peaks near 26–29°C. This atmospheric shift, including stronger northerly flow, underpins the market's heavy weighting toward 23°C (50%) and 24°C (33%), while limiting odds for 25°C or higher. Updated model runs over the next 48 hours will refine timing of any clearing and wind patterns that could alter surface heating.
