Persistent heat across western Saudi Arabia, with recent daily maxima frequently reaching 37–40 °C amid clear skies and strong insolation, underpins trader preference for a Jeddah peak of 38 °C or higher on August 28. Short-range model guidance from sources including the Met Office and ECMWF projects a maximum near 37 °C under light southwesterly flow, yet the 63 % implied probability for 38 °C+ reflects residual uncertainty in afternoon heating and the historical tendency for late-August readings to exceed monthly averages of roughly 37–38 °C. Low precipitation risk and stable pressure favor minimal cloud cover that could otherwise cap temperatures, while the slim odds assigned to 36 °C or below align with the absence of any cooling mechanisms such as sea-breeze strengthening or transient cloud bands in the current forecast suite.

The resolution source for this market will be information from NOAA, specifically the highest reading under the "Temp" column for all times on this day, available here: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=oejn
If NOAA data is unavailable or missing for the observation period, Weather Underground will be used as the secondary resolution source.
To toggle between Fahrenheit and Celsius, click the "Switch to Metric Units" button until the relevant table displays °C.
This market can not resolve until the first data point for the following date has been published on the resolution source.
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.
Revisions to temperatures recorded within this market's timeframe will be considered until the first datapoint for the following date has been published, after which any alterations will not be considered.
