Market context
On 4 June 2026, the highest temperature recorded at Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport Station will fall into one of several defined ranges. The settlement will draw from Wunderground's historical weather database for that specific location and date, converting between Celsius and Fahrenheit as needed. Guangzhou's June climate typically sees daily highs between 28–35°C, though extreme heat events can push readings higher. The 0% crowd probability suggests traders currently perceive either insufficient liquidity or uncertainty about which temperature band the market offers, rather than confidence that no heat will occur.
Historical June temperatures at Guangzhou Baiyun show consistent patterns: the airport station has recorded highs averaging 31–33°C during early June over the past decade, with occasional spikes to 36–37°C during heat waves. Comparable prediction markets on Chinese airport temperatures have resolved within expected seasonal ranges, indicating that Wunderground data typically aligns with meteorological forecasts issued 1–2 weeks prior. The current zero probability may reflect that traders have not yet engaged with this market's specific temperature bands or settlement mechanics.
From a regulatory standpoint, this market's accessibility depends on jurisdiction. Under German GlüStV rules, weather derivatives fall outside gaming regulation if structured as financial instruments; however, prediction markets remain subject to BaFin oversight. US CFTC reach extends to US persons trading on offshore platforms, though weather markets often escape direct commodity classification. For UK traders, markets under £1,500 notional value typically operate without formal KYC requirements on certain platforms, though identity verification may still apply at withdrawal. Traders should verify their platform's specific regulatory status before committing capital.
Methodology
Methodologically we separate two layers: the live probability (Polymarket mid-price) and the platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement currency, payment rails). The odds column is filled only where we have clean data — that avoids the made-up numbers that get a network demoted when search engines cross-check against the source venue.
Resolution & payout
Settlement runs on-chain. Polymarket's contract logic separates YES and NO shares as conditional tokens; at resolution the winning share lifts to $1.00 and the losing one to $0. The outcome input comes from the UMA Optimistic Oracle, which secures against bad resolution with a bond + dispute window.
Once finalised, the smart contract pays USDC to the holders' wallets within minutes — no withdrawal fees beyond Polygon network gas. Kalshi settles in USD via CFTC clearance, Betfair in account currency net of commission, Manifold in play-money mana with no cash-out.
