This market tracks the highest temperature recorded in San Antonio on July 10, 2026, using official National Weather Service data from San Antonio. The outcome will be determined by the maximum temperature reading on that specific date.
Resolution is based on the maximum temperature recorded at San Antonio on July 10, 2026, as reported in the National Weather Service's Climatological Report (Daily). The temperature is divided into six ranges: 90°F or below, 91-92°F, 93-94°F, 95-96°F, 97-98°F, and 99°F or above. Each range corresponds to a distinct outcome. Official data must be obtained from the NWS Climatological Report via the specified URL, selecting San Antonio with Daily Climate Report. While preliminary NWS data and third-party weather sources may provide guidance, the final determination uses only the official NWS Climatological Report (Daily) values. Traders should be aware that preliminary NWS reporting and measurement methods may involve rounding and conversion nuances that could affect the final reading.
Prediction market odds reflect real-money trader conviction and often incorporate meteorological expertise, historical weather patterns, and climate data faster than traditional analyst forecasts. While weather services and climatologists publish seasonal outlooks and long-range models, this market prices in dynamic trader adjustments as new information arrives. Comparing the two reveals whether the crowd is more bullish or bearish on extreme heat than official forecasts suggest. Over time, prediction markets have demonstrated competitive accuracy against expert predictions, particularly when traders have financial incentives to incorporate all available signals about temperature extremes.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous order-book mechanism where traders buy and sell shares representing different temperature outcomes. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. Each share pays out based on whether the realized high temperature falls within a specified range, and the current market price reflects the collective probability assigned by active traders. Prices move in real time as new bets flow in, allowing you to enter or exit positions at transparent, continuously updated rates. The spread between bid and ask prices tightens as volume increases, rewarding active participation.
This market resolves around Jul 11, 2026, once the highest temperature recorded in San Antonio on July 10, 2026 is verified against credible public sources. The outcome is determined by official weather station data, typically from the National Weather Service or equivalent meteorological authority. Traders holding shares in the correct temperature band receive their payout once the event occurs and the result is confirmed. Resolution is automatic and final once the data is published and validated.
Major weather pattern shifts, seasonal climate anomalies, and long-range forecast updates from meteorological agencies can significantly move odds in this market. El Niño or La Niña conditions, atmospheric pressure systems, and historical heat wave patterns for early July in Texas all influence trader positioning. As the event date approaches, short-range weather models become more precise, often triggering sharp repricing. Additionally, any unusual climate or atmospheric events—such as early heat domes or unexpected cold fronts—will prompt traders to reassess their bets, creating volatility in the odds.
