This market tracks the lowest temperature recorded in Phoenix on June 29, 2026. The outcome will be determined by the official National Weather Service daily climatological report for Phoenix, which measures the minimum temperature that occurs during the calendar day.
Resolution is based on the minimum temperature recorded at Phoenix, AZ on June 29, 2026, as reported in the National Weather Service's Climatological Report (Daily). The official data source is accessed through the NWS Southwest Region Climate portal by selecting the Phoenix, AZ location with Daily Climate Report. The minimum temperature is divided into six consecutive ranges: below 72°F, 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 note that preliminary NWS data may be subject to 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 often diverge from traditional meteorologist forecasts because they incorporate real-time trader positioning and financial incentives alongside expert analysis. While meteorologists issue point estimates or ranges based on atmospheric models, this market aggregates the collective judgment of participants who have money at stake. Traders may weight recent data, historical patterns, or emerging weather systems differently than published forecasts, creating price signals that sometimes lead or lag official predictions. Comparing the two reveals whether the market is pricing in more optimism or pessimism about temperature extremes than current expert consensus suggests.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous order-book mechanism where traders submit bids and asks for shares corresponding to different temperature outcomes. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. Each outcome has its own price, typically expressed as a probability between 0 and 100, reflecting the likelihood that the low temperature will fall within a specified range. As traders buy and sell, prices adjust in real time to balance supply and demand. The platform ensures transparent price discovery, so you can see the full depth of orders and execute trades at the best available rates.
This market resolves around Jun 30, 2026, once the lowest temperature recorded in Phoenix on June 29, 2026 is confirmed and verified. The outcome is determined by comparing the actual low temperature against the predefined thresholds embedded in each contract outcome. Verification relies on credible public sources to establish the final temperature reading. Once the event occurs and the data is published, the market settles automatically, and winning positions are credited with their payouts.
Major weather pattern shifts, seasonal climate anomalies, or updated long-range forecasts from meteorological agencies could significantly move this market. El Niño or La Niña conditions, jet stream positioning, and historical heat-wave or cold-snap trends all influence trader expectations. Breaking news about atmospheric blocking patterns or tropical systems weeks before the event may trigger repricing. Additionally, as June 29 approaches, short-range model consensus typically tightens, often causing sharper price movements as uncertainty narrows and traders gain confidence in specific temperature bands.
