Recent forecasts from the Hong Kong Observatory and multi-model consensus indicate a mainly fine, extremely hot day on August 9 with daytime highs of 35–36°C expected under light west to northwest winds and high humidity. This aligns with the current above-normal temperature regime for August 2026 and recent observations of 33–35°C peaks. Scattered showers or thunderstorms could moderate the exact maximum, introducing uncertainty around urban heat-island effects and localized cooling. Market-implied odds concentrate on 35°C and 36°C as traders weigh official guidance against model spreads and historical August extremes near 34–37°C. Updated HKO briefings and morning observations on August 9 will likely refine these probabilities before resolution.

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.
