Hong Kong Observatory (HKO) observations confirm a maximum air temperature of 29°C at its headquarters station on May 7, 2026—the precise measurement defining market resolution and driving trader consensus to 100% on this outcome. This aligns with seasonal climatological norms for May, where mean maximum temperatures average around 29°C amid normal to above-normal conditions forecasted by HKO, following a cooler May 6 peak of 24.2°C under cloudier skies. Sunny intervals and southerly airflow likely enabled daytime heating to this typical level, consistent with recent model guidance projecting up to 29°C. While HKO data carries authoritative finality, an extraordinarily rare measurement revision could theoretically challenge positioning, though no such precedents exist for standard observations.

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 to "Yes" until data for this date has been finalized.
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 finalized for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.
