This market will resolve to the temperature range that contains the highest temperature recorded by the Hong Kong Observatory in degrees Celsius on 16 Apr '26. The resolution source for this market will be information from the Hong Kong Observatory, specifically the "Absolute Daily Max (deg. C)" the specified date once information is finalized in the relevant "Daily Extract", available here: https://www.weather.gov.hk/en/cis/climat.htm This market can not resolve to "Yes" until data for this date has been finalized. The resolution source for this market measures temperatures in Celsius to one decimal place (eg, 9.1°C). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market. Any revisions to temperatures recorded after data is finalized for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.Trader consensus reflects a 100% implied probability for 30°C or higher as the Hong Kong Observatory (HKO) officially recorded a maximum air temperature of 30.2°C on April 16, 2026, amid fine, dry conditions with zero rainfall and relative humidity ranging 60-85%. This outcome aligns with HKO's seasonal forecasts for normal to above-normal temperatures in April-June 2026, following record-breaking March heat and an anticipated hot year driven by persistent high-pressure systems and climatological warming trends. Other stations like Lau Fau Shan hit 31.0°C, reinforcing regional heat. Realistic challenges are minimal—only an extraordinary data audit revealing sensor malfunction or recording error could alter it, given HKO's rigorous verification standards and historical reliability.
