Total monthly precipitation will be measured in Austin during June 2026. Multiple thresholds will track whether rainfall exceeds various levels throughout the month.
Resolution is determined by total precipitation measured at CLIAUS (Austin Bergstrom, TX) during June 2026, as reported in the National Weather Service Climatological Report (Daily). Official data is accessed via the NWS website under the Austin/San Antonio forecast office, Observed Weather tab. Each outcome corresponds to whether precipitation strictly exceeds a specific threshold: 1 inch, 2 inches, 3 inches, 4 inches, 5 inches, 6 inches, or 7 inches. Traders should note that preliminary NWS data may be subject to rounding and conversion nuances; the final official NWS report is authoritative. While supplementary sources like AccuWeather or Google Weather may provide guidance, only the official NWS Climatological Report determines resolution.
Prediction market odds on Kalshi reflect real-money trader expectations and often diverge from traditional meteorological forecasts.

Comparing the current market probability to long-range forecasts from the National Weather Service or climate research institutions can reveal where traders are pricing in additional risk or confidence.
