Market context
Beijing’s highest temperature will be decided by the **daily observations** at Beijing Capital International Airport, not the summary high, so the key question is whether the day’s peak lands in the high-20s, low-30s or above. Recent history suggests August in Beijing usually sits around the low 30s Celsius: one August guide puts the average high at 30.6°C and another at about 31°C, while Weather Underground’s own history page shows the airport station reporting 28.6°C on 8 August 2025 as the day’s maximum.[3][6][15][17]
That framing helps explain why a **0% yes price** looks extreme unless the market’s temperature band is very high. Beijing’s August records are well above the seasonal norm, with one source citing an extreme high of 38°C in 2022 and others showing typical August highs clustered around 30–33°C.[8][9][13] The recent run-up matters too: past weather pages for early August 2026 show Beijing already running warm, with one report putting the high on 7 August at 37°C and another showing 86°F around midday on 8 August, though the final settlement reading depends on the airport station’s highest observation rather than a citywide average.[1][11][14]
For traders, the main catalysts are the **station’s afternoon temperature curve**, any late cloud cover or rain, and whether the airport briefly spikes before easing. Weather Underground’s Beijing history page is the relevant live source for the settlement source, while other trackers such as timeanddate and weather services can help gauge the broader setup, but they do not control resolution.[1][17]

- Typically within hours of the official final whistle. Polymarket uses UMA Optimistic Oracle with source URLs pointing at official league data feeds — e.g. the Premier League for EPL markets, UEFA for Champions League, FIFA for World Cup.
- What are live sports odds on Polymarket?
- Some top-tier matches stay open during play — you can trade the half-time probability in the 70th minute. Polymarket mid-prices update second-by-second; any frontend mirroring the order book shows the same movement.
