This market will resolve to "Yes" if the Reykjavík Airport (stationID:BIRK) METAR observation at 18:00 UTC on August 12, 2026 reports a Cloud Coverage Level 1 (skyc1) value of SKC, CLR, FEW, or SCT. This market will resolve to "No" if that observation reports BKN, OVC, or VV, or are missing after applying the rules listed below. If the 18:00 UTC BIRK observation is missing or not reported within 24 hours, the 17:00 UTC BIRK observation will be used instead or, if it is also missing, the 19:00 UTC BIRK observation will be used. If both are missing, this market will resolve based on Keflavík International Airport's (stationID:BIKF) observations using the same time hierarchy. The primary resolution source is the Iowa Environmental Mesonet (IEM) ASOS archive (mesonet.agron.iastate.edu), routine hourly reports only, skyc1 field. The raw METAR text of the qualifying observation governs in the event of any discrepancy in the parsed CSV field. This market cannot resolve until the first data point for the following date has been published on the resolution source. Revisions to the cloud coverage recorded by the resolution source will be considered until the first datapoint for the following date has been published, after which any alterations will not be considered. At the time of the launch of this market, a CSV file that will update with the relevant observations can be found here: https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/cgi-bin/request/asos.py?network=IS__ASOS&station=BIRK&data=skyc1&year1=2026&month1=8&day1=12&year2=2026&month2=8&day2=12&tz=Etc%2FUTC&format=onlycomma&latlon=no&elev=no&missing=M&trace=T&direct=no&report_type=3&report_type=4 **Trader consensus favoring "No" for high visibility of the August 12, 2026 total solar eclipse in Reykjavík stems primarily from persistent cloud-cover risks rather than path geometry.** Reykjavík lies within the narrow path of totality, with NASA and National Solar Observatory data confirming roughly one minute of totality around 17:48 local time under clear skies. However, August climatology shows only about 32% average sunshine in the capital and a 70%+ historical probability of significant cloud cover across western Iceland, driven by frequent marine layer and convective activity. Recent forecasts from the Icelandic Meteorological Office highlight overcast conditions with light showers expected on eclipse day, consistent with long-term patterns that limit corona visibility even when the Moon fully occults the Sun. Mobile observers can chase clearer pockets along the Reykjanes or Snæfellsnes peninsulas, but fixed Reykjavík sites face higher odds of obstruction. Updated high-resolution cloud models in the final 48–72 hours remain the key variable that could shift market-implied odds.
