Forecast models from agencies including the China Meteorological Administration and international sources such as the Met Office and NOAA-aligned services indicate Shanghai will reach a daily maximum near 32°C today under partly to mostly cloudy skies with moderate southeasterly flow. This aligns with late-August climatology, where the long-term average high is 31°C, and recent observations show afternoon readings climbing from the upper 20s°C into the low 30s°C without signs of rapid intensification or significant cooling. The market’s overwhelming 96% implied probability for 32°C reflects this model consensus and real-time data, with only modest odds on 33°C. A late-day surge from unexpected clear skies or measurement variance could push the official high to 33°C or higher, while stronger onshore flow or earlier cloud cover might cap it at 31°C.
