Official National Weather Service observations from the Central Park KNYC station confirm a maximum temperature of 61°F on April 18, 2026, recorded at 2:51 PM and 5:51 PM via Automated Surface Observing System data, driving Polymarket's 100% implied probability for the 60-61°F outcome as traders anchor to verified measurements. This followed a mid-April heat wave peaking at 90°F on the 15th, when a passing frontal boundary introduced cooler maritime air, persistent cloud cover, mist, and fog that suppressed daytime heating despite light winds. Historical April averages hover around 60°F, aligning with this moderation. Resolution awaits final NWS daily climate summary, though challenges like rare sensor recalibrations or data discrepancies are improbable given consistent hourly logs.
