This market will resolve according to the total precipitation in mm at Heathrow (London Airport) in May, 2026, according to the Met Office. If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, then this market will resolve to the higher range bracket. The resolution source for this market will be the Met Office, specifically the figure for May 2026 under "rain mm" at the https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/pub/data/weather/uk/climate/stationdata/heathrowdata.txt link once the Provisional figure for the whole month of May 2026 is released. If the relevant data is not available by July 7, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, another credible resolution source will be chosen. The resolution source for this market measures precipitation to 1 decimal place (e.g., 1.5), thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving this market. Any revisions to precipitation recorded after Provisional data is released for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.Trader consensus favors 30mm+ total precipitation at 53.5% implied probability for May in London, driven by an exceptionally dry start with just 2-5mm recorded at Heathrow and local stations like NW3 through May 13—far below the climatological ~20mm for the first half—yet offset by Met Office forecasts of persistent heavy showers and thunder persisting through late May under low-pressure dominance. This positions the market above drier bins like 10-15mm (40.9%), reflecting uncertainty in remaining ~17 days where model ensembles indicate above-normal rainfall potential to approach the 46mm monthly norm, amid cooler anomalies (+1.6°C) and Atlantic moisture influx following 2026's wet winter. Key watchpoints include daily Met Office advisories and ensemble shifts for shower coverage.
