Trader consensus on Polymarket implies a 33% probability for a 32°C high in Lagos on May 8, aligned with NiMet's seasonal climate prediction of an extended rainy season and above-normal rainfall starting early in 2026, which has introduced cloudy conditions and isolated thunderstorms over the past week. Current short-term forecasts from international models and sites like AccuWeather project daily highs of 29–34°C amid the transition from dry harmattan winds to monsoon influences, with historical May averages around 31°C and variability driven by sea breeze strength, urban heat island effects, and precipitation timing. Key variables tipping outcomes include morning cloud cover suppressing peaks (favoring 30–31°C), sunny breaks allowing 33–34°C, or heavy showers cooling to 29°C or below; NiMet daily bulletins through May 8 will refine guidance as resolution nears.
