This market will resolve based on the highest temperature recorded in the 'Daily Observations' table on Weather Underground, not the figure displayed in the 'Day High & Low' summary section; in the event of any discrepancy between the two, the Daily Observations table shall be the primary resolution source not the Day High & Low section. This market will resolve to the temperature range that contains the highest temperature recorded at the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport Station in degrees Fahrenheit on 15 Aug '26. The resolution source for this market will be information from Wunderground, specifically the highest temperature recorded for all times on this day for the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport Station, available here: https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/us/ga/atlanta/KATL. To toggle between Fahrenheit and Celsius, click the gear icon next to the search bar and switch the Temperature setting between °F and °C. This market can not resolve until the first data point for the following date has been published on the resolution source. The resolution source for this market measures temperatures to whole degrees Fahrenheit (eg, 21°F). 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.
Persistent summer heat under a strong high-pressure system is positioning mid-90s readings as the most probable outcomes for Atlanta’s highest temperature on August 15. Official National Weather Service forecasts and recent model consensus point to a daytime high near 95–96°F, consistent with the market’s heaviest weighting on the 94–95°F (45%) and 96–97°F (32.5%) brackets. A heat advisory remains in effect through Saturday evening amid heat-index values climbing into the 100–108°F range, reflecting elevated humidity and urban heat-island amplification that routinely adds several degrees in the metro area. Recent developments reinforce this outlook. Temperatures have run 3–6°F above the long-term August average of roughly 89–92°F for several days, with today’s observed highs already reaching 94–96°F under mostly sunny skies and only isolated afternoon storms. No strong frontal passage or widespread cloud cover is expected to suppress maximum readings tomorrow, though scattered thundershowers could introduce minor variability. Historical analogs for similar late-summer heat domes in the Southeast show that such patterns typically deliver highs within a 2–3°F window unless a surprise mesoscale feature develops overnight. Traders appear to be pricing in the tight clustering of official guidance around the mid-90s while assigning low but non-zero probability to brief excursions into the upper 90s or low 90s if convective activity increases earlier than modeled. Updated NWS briefings and afternoon model runs on August 15 will provide the final data points before resolution.
