Description

The event tracks the peak temperature in Chicago on a specific summer day in 2026. Outcomes depend on how hot it gets, with different ranges determining success. Official data comes from The Weather Company to ensure consistency.

Kalshi

This event determines the outcome based on the maximum temperature recorded in Chicago on August 17, 2026, as reported by The Weather Company. Six distinct temperature ranges are defined, each corresponding to a specific market outcome. If the temperature falls within a given range, that market resolves as Yes; otherwise, it resolves as No. All secondary rules emphasize that while various weather sources may provide similar data, The Weather Company’s report is the definitive source for resolution. The ranges are structured to cover incremental increases in temperature, ensuring precise classification of the day’s climatic conditions.
