Recent short-term forecasts from agencies like the South African Weather Service and global models indicate Cape Town's overnight minimum on September 9 will likely fall between 14–16 °C under clear to partly cloudy skies and light southerly flow. This range stems from typical early-spring radiative cooling over the interior plateau, moderated by the cold Benguela Current's marine influence that limits deeper drops. Trader odds cluster tightly around 14–15 °C and the 10 °C-or-below versus 20 °C-or-higher brackets because ensemble members differ on exact wind speeds and cloud cover timing, which control how much heat escapes overnight. Historical September minima average near 10–12 °C, so any model shift toward stronger onshore flow or increased humidity could push the low higher and quickly reprice the market. Updated runs from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts and local high-resolution guidance expected within 24 hours will likely resolve much of the current 45–55 % uncertainty band.

The resolution source for this market will be information from NOAA, specifically the lowest reading under the "Temp" column for all times on this day, available here: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=fact
If NOAA data for the observation date is unavailable by 11:59 PM ET on the day following the observation date, the Weather Underground Daily Observations table will be used as the resolution source.
In the event that there is no data for the observation date by 11:59 PM ET on the day following the observation date, this market will resolve to the lowest bracket.
To toggle between Fahrenheit and Celsius, click the "Switch to Metric Units" button until the relevant table displays °C.
This market will resolve once the first data point for the following date has been published on the resolution source, or by 11:59 PM ET on the day following the observation date, whichever comes first.
The resolution source for this market measures temperatures to whole degrees Celsius (eg, 9°C). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
Revisions to temperatures recorded within this market's timeframe will be considered until the first datapoint for the following date has been published, after which any alterations will not be considered.
