This event tracks the highest temperature recorded at Philadelphia International Airport on June 13, 2026. The outcome will be determined by the official National Weather Service Climatological Report (Daily) for that date, with temperature ranges divided into six distinct brackets.
Resolution is based on the highest temperature recorded at Philadelphia International Airport on June 13, 2026, as reported in the National Weather Service's Climatological Report (Daily). The temperature is divided into six ranges: 86°F or below, 87–88°F, 89–90°F, 91–92°F, 93–94°F, and 95°F or above. Each range corresponds to a specific market outcome that resolves to Yes if the recorded temperature falls within that bracket. The NWS Climatological Report (Daily) is the sole authoritative source for resolution; preliminary NWS data and third-party weather services such as AccuWeather or Google Weather may differ due to rounding and measurement methodology variations and should not be used as the final reference.
Prediction market odds reflect real-money incentives for accuracy, often incorporating information faster than traditional weather forecasts. While meteorologists publish deterministic temperature predictions based on atmospheric models, this market aggregates the beliefs of many traders betting on specific temperature ranges. The two approaches differ fundamentally: analysts issue point estimates or ranges with confidence intervals, whereas traders express probabilistic views through market prices. Over time, this market's odds may diverge from or converge with official forecasts as new data arrives, offering an alternative gauge of what informed participants expect on that date.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous order-book mechanism where traders buy and sell shares corresponding to different temperature outcomes. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. Each outcome contract trades independently, and the price of a share reflects the market's implied probability that the highest temperature will fall within that range. Traders profit by correctly predicting the outcome, and the bid-ask spread tightens as more liquidity enters the market. Real-time price discovery ensures that odds adjust dynamically in response to new weather data, breaking news, or shifts in trader conviction.
This market resolves around Jun 14, 2026, once June 13, 2026 has passed and the day's highest temperature can be verified. The outcome is confirmed by comparing the recorded peak temperature against the predefined ranges offered in the market. Verification relies on credible public reporting from established meteorological sources. Once the actual temperature is confirmed and matched to the correct outcome bucket, traders holding shares in the winning outcome receive their payout, while losing positions expire worthless.
Major weather pattern shifts, updated seasonal forecasts, and historical climate anomalies can all influence odds in this market. If meteorologists issue revised predictions showing an unusually hot or cool pattern developing for mid-June 2026, traders will reprice their positions accordingly. Broader climate trends, such as persistent heat waves or cooler-than-normal periods in the Northeast, may also shift expectations. Real-time atmospheric data releases and any significant weather events in the months leading up to June will likely trigger trading activity. As the event date draws closer, intraday forecasts will become more precise, potentially causing sharp repricing in the final days.
