The market resolves on Jun 7, 2026, after the highest temperature in Washington DC on June 6, 2026, is officially recorded. Resolution depends on the actual daily high temperature reported by the designated weather station or official source specified by the market rules.

Temperature outcomes on Kalshi will shift based on seasonal weather patterns, atmospheric pressure systems, and long-range forecasts as June 6, 2026, approaches. Major weather events such as heat waves, cold fronts, or tropical systems affecting the Mid-Atlantic region can trigger sharp repricing.
