Pronóstico: Highest temperature in Chengdu on August 1?

Platform comparison

Market context

Chengdu’s 1 August high is usually close to the annual peak, so a *mild* outcome would be unusual rather than normal. Historical August averages cluster around 29.8-31°C, with typical daily highs near 87-90°F, and several climate sources note that 1 August is among the hottest dates of the year in Chengdu[1][2][10]. That backdrop matters for a market pinned to the airport station’s single-day maximum: even with monsoon moisture and frequent rain, the city regularly posts daytime temperatures in the low 30s Celsius, while extreme August heat has reached the high 30s in past years[3][4][16].

The key trade driver is whether Chengdu Shuangliu gets a clear, dry run through the early afternoon, when the day’s maximum is most often set. August is also one of the wetter months, with average rainfall around 195-210mm and many days carrying a meaningful rain chance, which can suppress the ceiling temperature if cloud and showers arrive early[2][10][16]. Traders should watch short-range forecasts for any change in cloud cover, rainfall timing and humidity, because these are the factors most likely to determine whether the airport tops out nearer the low 30s Celsius or struggles to reach that band at all[2][16][17].

Match odds cover a single game ("Bayern beats BVB"). Outright odds are long-term aggregates ("Bayern wins the league"). Outright markets have deeper liquidity; match markets have faster resolution.
