This market tracks the lowest overnight temperature recorded in Dallas on June 28, 2026. The outcome is determined by the official National Weather Service Climatological Report (Daily) for that date, which provides the minimum temperature reading at Dallas/Fort Worth.
Resolution is based on the minimum temperature recorded at Dallas/Fort Worth on June 28, 2026, as reported in the National Weather Service's Climatological Report (Daily), accessible via the Fort Worth NWS office. The official data source is the NWS Daily Climate Report, not preliminary reports or third-party weather services. Temperature readings are categorized into six ranges: 71°F or below, 72-73°F, 74-75°F, 76-77°F, 78-79°F, and 80°F or above. Each range corresponds to a distinct market outcome. Traders should be aware that preliminary NWS data may be subject to rounding and conversion nuances, and should use the final published Daily Climate Report for the specified date.
Prediction market odds often diverge from traditional weather forecasts because they incorporate real-time trader sentiment and financial incentives alongside meteorological models. While the National Weather Service and private forecasters publish deterministic low-temperature predictions for June 28, 2026, this market aggregates the collective judgment of traders who profit or lose based on accuracy. Analysts may emphasize historical climate patterns and seasonal norms, whereas market participants price in breaking weather data, climate anomalies, and emerging forecast updates. The comparison reveals whether traders are more bullish or bearish on extreme temperatures than official forecasters, offering a complementary perspective on Dallas weather risk.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous 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 collective probability assigned by the market. Traders can enter limit or market orders to go long or short on any temperature bracket, and the spread between bid and ask prices tightens as liquidity increases. Settlement prices are determined by the final verified low temperature on the event date, rewarding accurate predictions and penalizing incorrect ones.
This market resolves around Jun 29, 2026, once the lowest temperature recorded in Dallas on June 28, 2026 is confirmed and verifiable from credible public sources. The outcome is determined by official temperature data, typically from the National Weather Service or recognized meteorological stations serving the Dallas area. Traders holding shares in the correct temperature range at resolution receive their payout, while incorrect positions expire worthless. The resolution process is automated once the data is published, ensuring rapid settlement and transparency.
Major weather pattern shifts, seasonal climate anomalies, and updated long-range forecasts can significantly move odds in this market. Tropical systems, heat domes, or cold fronts approaching Texas in late June would trigger sharp repricing as traders adjust for new meteorological risk. Real-time forecast updates from the National Weather Service, changes in atmospheric pressure systems, and historical temperature comparisons for that date will influence trading activity. Additionally, any significant climate or weather news affecting North Texas could prompt traders to reposition, causing price swings as new information becomes available closer to the event.
