Highest temperature in Kuala Lumpur on September 12?
About Market
This market centers on the highest air temperature recorded in Kuala Lumpur on 12 September 2026, sorting the single-day peak reading into a set of whole-degree Celsius outcomes measured against one another. The daily maximum at the city's official reporting station is a meaningful focal point because Kuala Lumpur sits in an equatorial tropical climate where afternoon highs cluster within a narrow band, so a shift of one or two degrees is the difference between competing outcomes rather than a rounding detail. Traders are assessing the relative likelihood that the day's top reading lands on each candidate value, weighing recent observed highs, monsoon and cloud-cover patterns, humidity, and short-range forecast guidance as the reading for a single calendar day is settled.
-
Market Outcomes and Resolution Criteria: This submarket resolves YES if the highest temperature recorded in Kuala Lumpur on 12 September 2026, rounded to whole degrees Celsius, is exactly 32°C, and NO for any other value. A Tie applies only under Rule 5, in which case all positions settle at $0.50 per share.
-
Definition of "Highest Temperature" and "Observation Day": The highest temperature is the single greatest reading under the 'Temp' column across all reporting times on the observation day at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport station (WMKK). The observation day is the full local calendar day of 12 September 2026. Readings are measured to whole degrees Celsius, matching the resolution source's precision.
-
Official Sources and Evidence: The primary source is the U.S. National Weather Service (NOAA) time series for Kuala Lumpur International Airport (WMKK) at https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=wmkk, using the highest value under the 'Temp' column for all times on the observation day. If NOAA data is unavailable, the Weather Underground WMKK 'Daily Observations' table is used (not the 'Day High & Low' summary). Values are read to whole degrees Celsius.
-
Resolution Timing: The market is checked once the full set of the observation day's readings is available at the reporting station and resolves no sooner than 24 hours after the observation day ends. All positions are locked through to resolution.
-
Data Availability and Corrections: This market has no scheduled event to postpone; it settles on recorded observations. If the primary source is unavailable, the fallback source in Rule 3 applies. If the source revises or restates the day's reading before resolution, the corrected figure is used; once the market has resolved, settlement stands. If neither source provides an eligible reading and the outcome remains genuinely ambiguous after a 24-hour waiting period, the market resolves Tie with all positions settling at $0.50 per share.
-
Ambiguities and Disputes: The NOAA WMKK time series is definitive; where it and the fallback disagree, the primary source prevails. Forecasts, rumours, and unofficial readings do not qualify — only recorded observations from the sources in Rule 3 settle this market.
