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 16 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.
Current forecast models from the National Weather Service and private providers converge on a peak temperature of 94–97°F for Atlanta on August 16, driven by a strong high-pressure ridge, light southerly flow, and urban heat-island effects under mostly sunny skies. Recent observations show highs climbing into the low-to-mid 90s amid an ongoing heat wave, with heat indices already exceeding 100°F, supporting the market’s heavy weighting toward 96–97°F. Upper-90s outcomes remain possible if mixing is limited or insolation peaks higher than expected, while lower readings would require earlier cloud cover or a faster frontal passage—scenarios assigned low implied probability by traders. Updated model runs and afternoon observations will provide the next key data points before resolution.
