The market's overwhelming consensus on 26°C reflects the Hong Kong Observatory's official daily minimum temperature observation for August 26, 2026, which recorded exactly that value amid widespread rain and overcast conditions that suppressed overnight cooling. This aligns with regional reports showing nighttime lows stabilizing near 26°C under high humidity and light winds, consistent with climatological patterns for late August in the subtropical environment. Trader positioning incorporates the authority of HKO data as the resolution benchmark, with minimal uncertainty once verified measurements are released. Scenarios that could challenge this outcome remain limited but include potential post-event data revisions, differences across monitoring stations, or adjustments to the precise 24-hour reporting window, though such changes are infrequent for established meteorological records.

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 until data for this date has been published.
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 initially published for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.
