Highest temperature in Helsinki on June 29?

Prediction market odds reflect the aggregated belief of traders with real money at stake, whereas traditional weather analysts rely on numerical models and historical patterns.

While meteorologists publish point forecasts and confidence intervals, prediction markets distill that information into a single probability that traders continuously update. Comparing the two can reveal where the crowd sees upside or downside risk relative to official forecasts, though both approaches have distinct strengths in capturing uncertainty.
