Recent Hong Kong Observatory forecasts indicate a maximum of 28–33°C for August 29 under west-southwest flow, with mainly cloudy skies, isolated thunderstorms, and sunny intervals that could allow brief intensification of surface heating. Trader consensus clusters around 31–34°C because numerical models diverge on cloud cover timing and the strength of any residual subsidence from distant tropical systems such as Saudel. High humidity, typical of the southwest monsoon, limits overnight radiative cooling while urban heat-island effects in Kowloon and Hong Kong Island can add 1–2°C locally during peak insolation. An emerging El Niño background supports seasonally elevated temperatures, yet variable shower activity introduces the principal uncertainty ahead of final model runs.

The resolution source for this market will be information from the Hong Kong Observatory, specifically the "Absolute Daily Max (deg. C)" the specified date once information is finalized in the relevant "Daily Extract", available here: https://www.weather.gov.hk/en/cis/climat.htm
This market can not resolve until data for this date has been published.
The resolution source for this market measures temperatures in Celsius to one decimal place (eg, 9.1°C). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
Any revisions to temperatures recorded after data is initially published for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.
