Highest temperature in Dallas on July 22?

Platform comparison

Market context

The relevant event is the **highest observed temperature at Dallas Love Field on 22 July 2026**, as recorded for the day in Fahrenheit. For a power-user approach, the cleanest workflow is to treat this as a single-endpoint weather series: query the station’s daily history page, map the day’s maximum temperature into the market’s bins, and update only if the official daily high changes before settlement. A 0% implied probability for “YES” normally signals either a late-stage pricing anomaly or that the crowd is effectively treating the target band as unreachable, so it is worth checking whether the market has already repriced against the likely high-temperature interval rather than the broader city forecast.[1]

Historically, Dallas summer highs are often controlled less by one-off cool spells than by the persistence of a regional heat ridge, with daily maxima commonly clustering in the low-to-mid 100s during strong Southern Plains heat episodes. Recent summer outlook coverage has described Texas, including Dallas, staying in the **100–108°F** range during heat-wave periods, which is the sort of regime that matters more than headline citywide averages when the resolution source is a single airport station.[2] For programmatic trading, the key comparison set is not “what feels hot in Dallas”, but what KDAL’s observed peak has done on similar synoptic days, especially when cloud cover, storm outflows, or morning convection can cap the afternoon maximum below the broader metro forecast.

The main catalysts are the **day-ahead model runs**, any **heat advisory or excessive heat warning** updates, and the afternoon convective outlook, because those are the variables most likely to shift the station’s actual high into a different resolution band. Traders running bots or conditional orders would usually watch the National Weather Service forecast cycle, then reconcile it against the Wunderground station history page close to settlement, since a late thunderstorm outflow or an earlier-than-expected cloud break can move the maximum by several degrees without changing the broader regional heat narrative.[2]

Methodology

This page is a comparison snapshot: one live quote, four reference venues with their key attributes, and a single execution path — every trade button routes to Polymarket Review UK, which mirrors the Polymarket order book directly.

Resolution & payout

Polymarket-based markets settle through the UMA Optimistic Oracle on Polygon. A proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour challenge window opens, and unchallenged proposals finalise the resolution. Payouts settle automatically in USDC the moment the result is final — no bookmaker, no delay.

Kalshi-based markets settle in USD via the CFTC-regulated clearinghouse. Betfair Exchange settles in GBP/EUR net of commission. Manifold is play-money and does not pay out real funds.
