Hong Kong Observatory's latest 9-day forecast, updated April 30 at 23:20 HKT, projects a May 1 maximum temperature of 25°C under mainly cloudy skies with isolated morning and evening rain patches, moderate east-northeasterly winds force 4 (occasionally 5 offshore), and 70-90% humidity—conditions stemming from a persistent cloud band over Guangdong's coast ahead of an approaching trough. Trader consensus favors 26°C at 46.5% implied probability, reflecting historical tendencies for short-range forecasts to underestimate highs amid low rainfall odds (low PSR) and a seasonal outlook for normal to above-normal temperatures in early May, when climatological averages near 28°C. Current overnight readings around 23°C signal mild recovery potential; watch HKO's 11:30 HKT May 1 update for refined model guidance as solar heating interacts with cloud cover.

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 to "Yes" until data for this date has been finalized.
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 finalized for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.
