This market tracks the highest temperature recorded in Minneapolis on June 18, 2026. The outcome will be determined by the official National Weather Service Climatological Report (Daily) for Minneapolis/St Paul, with six temperature bands ranging from 68°F or below to 77°F or above.
Resolution is based on the maximum temperature recorded at Minneapolis on June 18, 2026, according to the National Weather Service's Climatological Report (Daily). The official data source is accessed via the NWS website under the "Observed Weather" tab for Minneapolis/St Paul, MN. Temperature outcomes are divided into six bands: 68°F or below, 69-70°F, 71-72°F, 73-74°F, 75-76°F, and 77°F or above. Each band resolves to Yes if the recorded temperature falls within that range. Traders should note that preliminary NWS reporting may be subject to rounding and conversion nuances, and the final official NWS Climatological Report (Daily) takes precedence over other weather data sources.
Prediction market odds reflect real-time trader consensus and often incorporate the latest meteorological data faster than traditional forecasts. While weather analysts publish seasonal outlooks and historical climate models, this market aggregates the combined judgment of many participants with financial incentives to be accurate. The odds can diverge from analyst predictions when new atmospheric patterns emerge or when traders weight certain climate signals differently, making the market a complementary lens to official forecasts rather than a replacement.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous order-book mechanism where traders buy and sell shares corresponding to different temperature ranges or outcomes. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. Prices move as supply and demand shift, with each trade updating the implied probability of the final temperature. The platform's matching engine ensures transparent price discovery, and you can place limit or market orders to enter or exit your position at any time before the market closes.
This market resolves around Jun 19, 2026, after June 18, 2026 concludes. The outcome is determined by the highest temperature recorded in Minneapolis on that date, verified against credible public sources. Once the final temperature is confirmed and reported, the market settles automatically, and traders holding the correct outcome receive their winnings based on the odds at which they entered their positions.
Major weather pattern shifts, seasonal climate anomalies, and updated long-range forecasts can all influence trading activity in this market. El Niño or La Niña conditions, jet stream positioning, and historical temperature records for mid-June in Minneapolis are key signals traders monitor. Additionally, any significant atmospheric events—such as unusual high-pressure systems or early heat waves affecting the Upper Midwest—may prompt traders to adjust their positions, causing the odds to shift as new information becomes available.
