Polymarket
This market tracks whether Tokyo's highest temperature will reach 29°C on May 29, 2026. On Polymarket, the leading outcome—a high of 29°C—stands at 39.0%, while a high of 30°C carries 30.0% probability. Resolution will be determined by Weather Underground's historical data for Tokyo Haneda Airport Station. Watch the actual temperature reading on May 29, 2026, as that date will determine which outcome bracket captures the day's peak temperature.
Prediction market odds on Polymarket reflect crowdsourced expectations from traders betting real capital, which often incorporate meteorological forecasts, seasonal patterns, and recent weather data. While professional weather analysts publish point estimates and confidence intervals based on atmospheric models, prediction markets aggregate diverse information through price discovery. Comparing the market's implied probability for specific temperature ranges against Japan Meteorological Agency seasonal outlooks or regional climate models can reveal whether traders are pricing in consensus forecasts or diverging based on alternative interpretations of available data.
The market resolves on May 29, 2026, after the highest temperature recorded in Tokyo on May 29 is officially confirmed. The outcome is determined by comparing the actual daily high temperature against the predefined thresholds or ranges specified in each contract. Once the official data is published, the winning outcome is settled and traders receive payouts based on their positions. The resolution hinges on accurate, authoritative temperature data from the relevant meteorological authority.
Major weather pattern shifts, seasonal anomalies, or unexpected atmospheric systems approaching Japan could significantly alter temperature expectations. El Niño or La Niña conditions, tropical cyclone activity, and upper-atmosphere pressure systems influence late-May weather in Tokyo. Updated extended-range forecasts from the Japan Meteorological Agency or international weather models may trigger repricing as new data emerges. Additionally, historical temperature records for that date and real-time spring weather trends will inform trader sentiment and adjust implied probabilities closer to the resolution date.
