This market will resolve to the temperature range that contains the highest temperature recorded at the Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport Station in degrees Celsius on 5 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 Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport Station, available here: https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/cn/qingdao/ZSQD. 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 reflect aggregated trader expectations and often diverge from traditional meteorological forecasts or analyst models. While weather bureaus and climate analysts publish deterministic or probabilistic temperature predictions based on atmospheric data, prediction markets incorporate real-time information, trader conviction, and market dynamics. The Polymarket odds for Qingdao's June 5 high temperature may lead or lag official forecasts depending on data availability and how quickly traders incorporate new weather models or seasonal patterns into their positions.
On Polymarket, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. On Polymarket, the highest temperature in Qingdao on June 5 is priced as a set of outcome contracts, each representing a specific temperature range or exact value. Traders buy and sell these contracts based on their belief in which outcome will occur. The price of each contract reflects its implied probability; higher prices indicate greater market confidence in that temperature range. Liquidity and trading volume on Polymarket determine how easily traders can enter or exit positions, and prices adjust continuously as new information and trades arrive throughout the market's lifetime.
The market resolves on Jun 5, 2026, after the highest temperature in Qingdao on June 5, 2026 has been recorded. The outcome is determined by the official maximum temperature reading for that day in Qingdao. Resolution depends on data from authoritative weather stations or meteorological agencies that monitor temperature in the region. Once the actual high temperature is confirmed and reported, the corresponding outcome contract is settled, and traders' positions are finalized based on whether their prediction matched the realized temperature.
Several factors could shift market odds for Qingdao's June 5 high temperature. Updated seasonal weather forecasts, changes in atmospheric pressure systems, or shifts in ocean currents affecting the coastal region may prompt traders to adjust positions. Major weather events such as typhoons, cold fronts, or heat waves in East Asia could influence expectations. Additionally, historical temperature data releases, improved climate models, or real-time observations closer to June 5 will drive trading activity. Trader sentiment and risk appetite also play a role, as do any unexpected geophysical or atmospheric anomalies affecting the region.
