This market tracks the highest temperature recorded in San Antonio on June 22, 2026. The outcome will be determined by the official National Weather Service daily climatological report for San Antonio, which measures the maximum temperature reached during that calendar day.
Resolution is based on the maximum temperature recorded at San Antonio on June 22, 2026, as reported in the National Weather Service's Climatological Report (Daily). The official data source is accessed via the NWS Austin office website under the Observed Weather tab. Temperature ranges are divided into six bands: below 91°F, 91-92°F, 93-94°F, 95-96°F, 97-98°F, and 99°F or above. Each band corresponds to a separate market outcome. Traders should note that preliminary NWS data may contain rounding and conversion nuances, and the final official report should be used for resolution rather than real-time or third-party weather services.
Prediction market odds reflect real-money incentives for accuracy, often incorporating information faster than traditional weather forecasts. While meteorologists issue deterministic point estimates or ranges based on atmospheric models, this market aggregates distributed trader knowledge into probabilistic outcomes. Traders who outperform official forecasts profit, creating pressure to price in emerging signals—such as El Niño patterns, urban heat effects, or seasonal anomalies—that analysts may weight differently. Over time, markets tend to converge toward verifiable outcomes, making them a useful cross-check against conventional forecasting approaches.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through an order-book mechanism where traders buy and sell shares corresponding to temperature outcome ranges. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. Each outcome contract represents a specific temperature band, and the price of each contract reflects the collective belief in its likelihood. Traders profit by correctly predicting whether the high temperature will exceed or fall short of defined thresholds. Prices adjust in real time as new orders flow in, with tighter spreads indicating higher confidence and deeper liquidity around consensus outcomes.
This market resolves around Jun 23, 2026, once the highest temperature recorded in San Antonio on June 22, 2026 is verified against credible public sources. The outcome is determined by official weather station data or recognized meteorological records for that date. Traders holding contracts aligned with the verified temperature range receive their payout, while misaligned positions expire worthless. Resolution typically occurs within hours of market close, pending confirmation of the final temperature reading.
Major weather pattern shifts—such as changes in the jet stream, tropical systems, or high-pressure ridges—can significantly reprrice this market. Seasonal climate indices like the Southern Oscillation or soil moisture anomalies may signal hotter or cooler conditions ahead. Urban development or heat-island intensification in San Antonio could push long-term expectations upward. Near-term catalysts include updated National Weather Service forecasts, historical temperature records for that date, and real-time atmospheric data released in the weeks before June 22, 2026. Traders actively monitor these signals to adjust positions.
