**A broad trough of low pressure driving unsettled conditions over the South China Sea and Guangdong coast is the main factor capping trader expectations for Hong Kong's maximum temperature on August 30.** Official Hong Kong Observatory forecasts indicate mainly cloudy skies with showers and thunderstorms, yielding a projected range of 27–31°C and limiting solar heating relative to the clearer, hotter conditions expected on August 29. Seasonal context shows late-August averages near 31°C, while an emerging El Niño and background warming trend support the slight edge for 31°C in market odds; however, model consensus on increased cloud cover, higher humidity, and convective activity introduces genuine uncertainty around the 29–32°C cluster. Updated HKO guidance and next model runs will likely refine these probabilities ahead of resolution.

The resolution source for this market will be information from the Hong Kong Observatory, specifically the "Absolute Daily Max (deg. C)" the specified date once information is finalized in the relevant "Daily Extract", available here: https://www.weather.gov.hk/en/cis/climat.htm
This market can not resolve until data for this date has been published.
The resolution source for this market measures temperatures in Celsius to one decimal place (eg, 9.1°C). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
Any revisions to temperatures recorded after data is initially published for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.
