This market tracks the lowest temperature recorded in Washington DC on June 27, 2026. The outcome is determined by the minimum temperature reported by the National Weather Service's daily climatological report for that specific date.
Resolution is based on the minimum temperature recorded at Washington DC on June 27, 2026, as reported in the National Weather Service's Climatological Report (Daily) for the Washington-National location. The official data source is accessed via the NWS Regional Headquarters website under the Observed Weather tab. Temperature readings are categorized into six ranges: 63°F or below, 64-65°F, 66-67°F, 68-69°F, 70-71°F, and 72°F or above, with each range corresponding to a distinct market outcome. Traders should note that preliminary NWS data may be subject to rounding and conversion nuances, and the final official NWS Climatological Report (Daily) serves as the authoritative source for resolution, superseding other weather data sources.
Prediction market odds reflect the collective judgment of traders betting real money on outcomes, whereas traditional meteorological forecasts rely on physics-based climate models and historical data. This market aggregates dispersed information from participants who have financial incentives to price the outcome accurately. While weather analysts publish confidence intervals and probability ranges months in advance, prediction markets allow those forecasts to be continuously tested and repriced as new data arrives. Comparing the implied probability from this market to published seasonal temperature outlooks can reveal where traders see divergence from official predictions or where consensus is strongest.
This market resolves around Jun 28, 2026, once the lowest temperature recorded in Washington DC on June 27, 2026 is verified against credible public sources. The outcome is determined by comparing the official low temperature for that day to the 64-degree threshold. Traders holding shares in the winning outcome receive their payout, while losing shares expire worthless. Resolution typically occurs within hours of the market end date as data becomes available and is confirmed through established meteorological reporting channels.
Major weather pattern shifts, seasonal climate anomalies, and updated long-range forecasts can significantly move this market. El Niño or La Niña conditions, jet stream positioning, and atmospheric blocking patterns influence June temperatures in the DC region. As the event date approaches, medium-range forecasts (10–14 days out) become more reliable and often trigger sharp repricing. Heat waves or cold snaps affecting the eastern United States, changes in solar activity predictions, and any unusual atmospheric events will draw trader attention. Real-time weather model updates in late June will drive the final price discovery phase.
