This market will resolve to "Yes" if the data for the Global Land-Ocean Temperature Index for June 2024 shows an increase greater than that of any prior June when it is released. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".

At the point the data for June 2024 is first released, it will be compared to all previous data points for June, and if 2024 June is higher than all previous data points, this market will resolve to "Yes."

Note: If 2024 June is tied for highest with another year, it will NOT suffice to resolve this market to "Yes" - it must be higher.

The primary resolution source for this market will be the figures found in the table titled "GLOBAL Land-Ocean Temperature Index in 0.01 degrees Celsius" under the column "Jun" (https://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/tabledata_v4/GLB.Ts+dSST.txt). If NASA's "Global Temperature Index" is rendered permanently unavailable, other information from NASA may be used.
