Hong Kong Observatory guidance and ensemble forecasts point to mainly fine and very hot conditions on August 8, 2026, with a daily maximum near 34–35 °C under weak west-to-southwesterly flow, moderate humidity, and sufficient solar insolation to drive boundary-layer warming. These factors, combined with the urban heat-island effect over the densely built Kowloon and Hong Kong Island districts, position 34 °C and 35 °C as the market’s leading outcomes. Seasonal outlooks already indicate normal-to-above-normal temperatures for the month, while late-summer sea-surface temperatures sustain high heat content. Minor probability mass on 36 °C or 33 °C reflects residual uncertainty around cloud cover, any late convective showers, or precise verification timing at the official observatory station.

The resolution source for this market will be information from the Hong Kong Observatory, specifically the "Absolute Daily Max (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.
