Persistent late-August heat across the Southwest and South has driven numerous daily temperature records at US stations, with Phoenix, the Coachella Valley, El Paso, and parts of Florida seeing highs that broke or tied date-specific marks amid highs near or above 115°F. These conditions reflect continued high-pressure patterns and above-normal temperatures through much of the month, though all-time station highs remain harder to surpass than daily or monthly benchmarks. Trader consensus favoring 101-150 records implies a moderate tally of new historical extremes by month-end, consistent with the pattern of widespread but not unprecedented warmth; lower bins like 0-20 gain support if verification shows most breaks limited to shorter-term records. Cooling expected into early September limits further upside.

The Timescale will be All-Time Records", "Highest Max Temperature" for Parameter, and the month of August 2026 for the Date Range. The number in the "BROKEN" column is the resolution value. Only records broken in the United States will resolve this market.
Full documentation of the GHCN-Daily dataset is available at https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/land-based-station/global-historical-climatology-network-daily.
The market resolves on September 15, 2026, based on the value shown in the tool at that time. This reading is final. Any corrections, revisions, or additional data that NOAA processes after September 15 will not affect the outcome. September 15 snapshot may not include all August records due to reporting lag but will govern the resolution regardless.
