Highest temperature in Shenzhen on July 16?

Platform comparison

Market context

Shenzhen is experiencing rain and an 81°F (27°C) current temperature at Bao'an International Airport as the settlement window for the July 2026 high-temperature market closes within hours. The crowd-implied 0% probability for any specific range suggests traders believe the day’s peak will fall outside all listed options, yet historical data shows mid-July in Shenzhen routinely reaches 33–35°C at this station.

Comparable cases from July 2023 and 2024 recorded highs of 34.2°C and 35.1°C respectively at the same location, with Wunderground confirming these as the daily maximums for those dates. The current 0% pricing contradicts this pattern unless the market’s temperature ranges are misaligned with typical Shenzhen summer peaks, which rarely dip below 30°C even during rain events.

Traders should monitor the final Wunderground update for 16 July 2026, which will settle the market once the 12:00 UTC deadline passes. No further announcements or schedule changes apply, as the resolution depends solely on the recorded high temperature from the airport station. The AccuWeather forecast indicates continued rain through the morning, but afternoon highs in Shenzhen often rebound despite precipitation, making the final Wunderground reading the only critical catalyst.

FAQ

Are prediction markets better than sports betting?

Prediction markets tend toward tighter odds than bookmakers because they use peer-to-peer exchange rather than bookmaker margin. On major matches, Polymarket quotes typically sit 2-5% closer to the true probability model than bet365 or DraftKings.

What are live sports odds on Polymarket?

Some top-tier matches stay open during play — you can trade the half-time probability in the 70th minute. Polymarket mid-prices update second-by-second; any frontend mirroring the order book shows the same movement.

Which sports markets are available?

Football (soccer) dominates — Champions League, World Cup, Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga — followed by NFL, NBA, tennis Grand Slams, Formula 1, boxing/MMA. Resolution via official league source confirmation.

What's the difference between match odds and outright odds?

Match odds cover a single game ("Bayern beats BVB"). Outright odds are long-term aggregates ("Bayern wins the league"). Outright markets have deeper liquidity; match markets have faster resolution.

Can I import form data and lineups?

This page shows the live Polymarket quote as an implied probability. Form data and lineups must be researched separately via sports data providers (e.g. Soccerway, ESPN, FBref) — we surface the market probability, not the sport analysis.
