What counts

The market resolves based on the highest temperature recorded by the Hong Kong Observatory on October 8, 2026. The outcome depends on whether that specific daily maximum is 29°C or higher for a 'Yes' result, or lower for a 'No'. Readers often mistake the linked news story about visitor numbers for the actual data source, but only the official temperature record from the Observatory counts.

Written from Polymarket's resolution rules by the same model that writes our headlines. The rules on Polymarket are what decides it.
