This market will resolve to the temperature range that contains the highest temperature recorded at the Gimhae Intl Airport Station in degrees Celsius on 2 Jun '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 Gimhae Intl Airport Station, available here: https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/kr/busan/RKPK. 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.
Prediction market odds on Polymarket often diverge from traditional meteorological forecasts and analyst predictions. While weather agencies issue deterministic temperature ranges based on climate models, prediction markets aggregate trader beliefs into probabilistic outcomes. Analysts may forecast a specific range, but market participants price in uncertainty, historical volatility, and tail risks differently. Comparing Polymarket odds to published forecasts from Korea Meteorological Administration or regional weather services reveals whether traders are pricing in more or less extreme outcomes than official models suggest. This gap can indicate market skepticism or confidence relative to expert consensus.
On Polymarket, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. On Polymarket, the Highest temperature in Busan on June 2 is priced through an automated market maker or order-book mechanism where each outcome contract trades independently. Traders buy shares representing specific temperature ranges or thresholds, and the price of each share reflects the market's collective probability estimate. As traders deposit liquidity and place orders, prices adjust to balance supply and demand. The implied probability of each outcome is derived from its contract price. Polymarket's transparent order history and real-time pricing allow participants to see exactly how the market values each temperature scenario leading up to resolution on Jun 2, 2026.
The Highest temperature in Busan on June 2 market resolves on Jun 2, 2026. Resolution is determined by the actual recorded maximum temperature in Busan on June 2, which establishes which outcome contract or range bracket is correct. The market settles based on verified meteorological data, ensuring that the winning outcome reflects real-world conditions. Traders holding shares in the correct outcome receive their payout, while incorrect positions expire worthless. This objective, data-driven resolution mechanism is what gives prediction markets their credibility for weather events.
Several factors could shift market odds for Busan's peak temperature on June 2. Updated seasonal forecasts, changes in large-scale weather patterns, or emerging atmospheric anomalies detected by meteorologists will influence trader expectations. Tropical systems, monsoon onset timing, or unusual jet-stream positioning could dramatically alter temperature projections. Real-time weather model updates released in the days leading to June 2 often trigger significant repricing. Historical temperature records for that date and time of year serve as anchors, but climate anomalies or unexpected heat waves can push odds sharply. Traders continuously incorporate new meteorological data, making the market a dynamic reflection of evolving weather intelligence.
