Persistent high-pressure ridging over central Texas drove the extreme heat on August 24, 2026, producing observed highs of 103°F at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport and 105°F at Camp Mabry, well above the 96–97°F normal. This aligns with the market’s near-certain 104–105°F outcome, reflecting NOAA station data amid an ongoing multi-week heat wave with minimal cloud cover, southerly flow, and dew points supporting high heat indices. Official National Weather Service summaries confirm these readings with no precipitation to moderate temperatures. Resolution could shift only if the designated station or final quality-controlled data revises the peak by a degree or more, though current observations make such adjustments unlikely.
