This market tracks the highest temperature recorded in San Francisco on June 23, 2026. The outcome is determined by the maximum temperature reading from the National Weather Service's official daily climatological report for San Francisco Airport, which is divided into six temperature bands.
Resolution is based on the maximum temperature recorded at San Francisco Airport on June 23, 2026, as reported in the National Weather Service's Climatological Report (Daily). The official data source is accessed via the NWS website at the specified URL, selecting San Francisco Airport with Daily Climate Report. Temperature bands are: 67°F or below, 68-69°F, 70-71°F, 72-73°F, 74-75°F, and 76°F or above. Traders should note that preliminary NWS data may be subject to rounding and conversion nuances, and the final official NWS report takes precedence over other weather sources such as AccuWeather or Google Weather.
Prediction market odds often diverge from traditional weather forecasts because they reflect real-money incentives and live trader sentiment rather than static meteorological models. While professional meteorologists issue point estimates or confidence intervals weeks in advance, this market continuously reprices as new data emerges—atmospheric patterns shift, seasonal trends update, and traders incorporate late-breaking information. The odds you see represent a decentralized consensus, which sometimes outperforms single-model forecasts but may also reflect speculative positioning or information asymmetries among participants.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through an order-book mechanism where traders buy and sell shares corresponding to different temperature ranges. 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 implied probability that the highest temperature will fall within that bracket. As traders place bids and asks, the spread tightens or widens based on conviction and liquidity, allowing you to enter or exit positions at transparent, continuously updated prices throughout the trading window.
This market resolves around Jun 24, 2026, once June 23, 2026 has passed and the day's peak temperature is verifiable from credible public sources. The outcome is determined by the highest temperature recorded in San Francisco on that date, measured against the specific temperature brackets offered in the market. Once the event occurs and data is confirmed, the winning outcome is locked in and traders' positions settle according to their bets.
Major weather pattern shifts, seasonal climate anomalies, and updated long-range forecasts from meteorological agencies can all drive significant repricing. El Niño or La Niña conditions, unexpected heat waves, or changes in atmospheric circulation patterns may emerge months before June 2026, prompting traders to adjust odds. Additionally, historical temperature records for that date, shifts in urban heat-island effects, or even broader climate trends could influence market sentiment. Real-money traders continuously incorporate new information, so any credible signal about Bay Area weather conditions in late June will be reflected in live pricing.
