This market will resolve to the temperature range that contains the highest temperature recorded by NOAA at the Chicago O'Hare Intl Airport Station in degrees Fahrenheit on 24 Aug '26. The resolution source for this market will be information from NOAA, specifically the highest reading under the "Temp" column for all times on this day, available here: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=kord This market will resolve off of the Hourly Data provided using the "Show Hourly Data" button. To toggle between Fahrenheit and Celsius, click the "Switch to US Units w/ kts" button until the relevant table displays °F. This market can not resolve until the first data point for the following date has been published on the resolution source. The resolution source for this market measures temperatures to whole degrees Fahrenheit (eg, 21°F). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market. Revisions to temperatures recorded within this market's timeframe will be considered until the first datapoint for the following date has been published, after which any alterations will not be considered.Current National Weather Service and model guidance points to a mostly sunny day with a high near 76°F in Chicago on August 24, driven by a cooler-than-normal air mass and light northwesterly flow that limits afternoon heating below seasonal averages around 82°F. This positions the 76-77°F bin as the market leader, with the 78-79°F range reflecting residual uncertainty in exact peak readings or urban heat island effects. Official observations will come from Chicago O’Hare or Midway, with any late-day warming or model shifts able to nudge outcomes higher before resolution.
