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 Shanghai Pudong International Airport Station in degrees Celsius on 19 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 Shanghai Pudong International Airport Station, available here: https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/cn/shanghai/ZSPD. 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 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.Recent official forecasts from Chinese meteorological agencies project a daytime high of 31°C in Shanghai on August 19 under overcast or partly cloudy skies with moderate humidity and light winds, aligning with late-summer climatology where typical maxima reach 30–33°C. This consensus draws from model runs showing stable atmospheric conditions without significant heat advection or clear-sky amplification. Trader positioning at 100% for 31°C reflects high confidence in these near-term observations, though resolution hinges on verified station readings. Unexpected heavy rainfall or thicker cloud cover could suppress the peak below this threshold, while sudden clearing might push it slightly higher.
