Hong Kong Observatory forecasts point to a maximum of 31°C on August 24 amid a broad low-pressure trough over the northern South China Sea, which is expected to sustain mostly cloudy skies, scattered showers, and thunderstorms that limit daytime heating. South to southwesterly winds of 4–5 on the Beaufort scale, combined with high humidity of 75–95%, further moderate peaks, consistent with late-August climatological normals near 31°C. Market-implied odds cluster tightly around 30–32°C because the exact high hinges on shower timing and intensity, variables that numerical models update frequently; traders weigh these near-term convective details against the risk of brief clear intervals allowing brief spikes above the forecast.

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.
