Ensemble forecasts from the Hong Kong Observatory and global models show modest spread for maximum temperatures on August 28, with outcomes clustered around 30–33°C reflecting typical late-summer subtropical conditions. Key differentiating factors include variable cloud cover and shortwave radiation under a weakening monsoon trough, boundary-layer moisture and urban heat-island effects that can add 1–2°C locally, and light steering winds that limit or enhance afternoon heating. Sea-surface temperatures near 29°C provide ample energy for warmth, while any late-day convective development could cap peaks. Traders weigh the latest model runs showing slight cooling versus persistence of clear, humid conditions, with resolution hinging on official HKO measurements at the designated 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.
