Highest temperature in Dallas on July 15?

Platform comparison

Market context

Dallas Love Field is set to record its peak July 15 temperature for 2026, with the market currently pricing a 0% chance for any outcome above the implied threshold, effectively treating extreme heat as impossible. Historical mid-July data for Dallas shows frequent highs between 90°F and 100°F, making the current 0% YES probability a stark outlier against typical seasonal patterns. In comparable years, temperatures exceeding 95°F are common, suggesting the crowd has mispriced the favourite outcome of 90–91°F, which Polymarket data indicates holds a 44% implied probability, while 88–89°F sits at 30% [1].

Traders should monitor the National Weather Service’s 7-day forecast for the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, as sudden shifts in humidity or cloud cover can alter peak temperatures by several degrees. A recent analysis from the Dallas Morning News highlights that July 2026 has seen above-average cloud cover so far, which could suppress highs, yet a break in this pattern could quickly push temperatures into the 90s, creating a contrarian value spot for the 90–91°F range [1]. The settlement window closes at 12:00 UTC on 15 July 2026, meaning any late-day heat spike will be captured, and Wunderground’s official record for KDAL will be the sole resolution source.

FAQ

Is this market available outside the US?

Polymarket itself is geo-blocked in the US/UK/EU. Always check the legal status of prediction markets in your jurisdiction before trading.

How does resolution work?

Through the UMA Optimistic Oracle on Polygon: a proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour challenge window opens, and USDC payouts settle automatically once the result is final.

What's the difference between YES and NO shares?

A YES share pays $1.00 if the event happens, $0 otherwise. A NO share pays $1.00 if the event doesn't happen. The market price between 0¢ and 100¢ is the implied probability.

Do I need to KYC for this market?

On Polymarket directly, no — it's wallet-based. Intermediary brokers like Who Will Win 2026 trigger KYC only above $1,500 of lifetime trading volume; under that you trade pseudonymously with a single wallet address.

How reliable are the quoted odds?

The YES/NO percentages are the live mid-prices of the Polymarket order book. On deep markets they move every few seconds; on thinner ones you'll see short plateaus.
