Current numerical weather prediction models from sources like the China Meteorological Administration indicate peak temperatures in Chengdu on July 10 likely falling in the 36–38°C range, aligning with the tightly clustered market-implied odds around those thresholds. Persistent summer high pressure over the Sichuan basin, combined with high humidity and limited cloud cover in recent days, supports daytime maxima near or above seasonal averages of 30–32°C, while scattered thunderstorms could cap extremes through evaporative cooling. Model consensus shows modest spread due to variable steering flows and moisture advection, with historical July analogs rarely exceeding 39°C without strong subsidence. Updated short-range forecasts and official observations on July 10 will provide the final resolution data.
