This market will resolve to the temperature range that contains the highest temperature recorded at the Cape Town International Airport Station in degrees Celsius on 17 Apr '26. The resolution source for this market will be information from Wunderground, specifically the highest temperature recorded for all times on this day by the Forecast for the Cape Town International Airport Station once information is finalized, available here: https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/za/matroosfontein/FACT. To toggle between Fahrenheit and Celsius, click the gear icon next to the search bar and switch the Temperature setting between °F and °C. This market can not resolve to "Yes" until all data for this date has been finalized. The resolution source for this market measures temperatures to whole degrees Celsius (eg, 9°C). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market. Any revisions to temperatures recorded after data is finalized for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects tight uncertainty in forecast models for Cape Town's highest temperature on April 17, with SAWS projecting around 16–17°C under partly cloudy skies and lows near 13°C, aligning with AccuWeather's 15–18°C range amid possible light showers. Recent model runs from GFS and ECMWF ensembles show minimal spread of 1–2°C, driven by a cool autumn air mass influenced by the Benguela Current, moderating highs below the monthly average of 22°C; differentiating factors include timing of morning cloud cover and sea breeze intensification, which could suppress peaks toward 15°C or allow slight warming to 18°C. Monitor SAWS updates overnight for refined guidance ahead of resolution based on official airport observations.
