توقع: Highest temperature in Taipei on August 2?

Platform comparison

Market context

Taipei’s late-summer heat usually pushes the afternoon maximum into the low 30s Celsius, with August averages around 32–33°C and occasional hotter spikes into the mid-30s[3][5][15]. That makes the current **0% YES** pricing hard to read as a temperature call: the market is not asking whether it will be hot, but which range will contain the day’s single highest reading at Songshan Airport, and the historical backdrop says 31–34°C is the core band to watch, with 35°C+ needing a more extreme heat event[1][3][13].

The main catalyst is the actual weather pattern on the day, especially whether Taipei sits under clear, subsiding air or gets cloud, rain, or typhoon influence, all of which can cap the peak even if morning conditions look warm[5][9][12]. Traders should watch the Taiwan Central Weather Administration and any typhoon or thunderstorm warnings, because August in Taipei is typically hot, humid and storm-prone, with frequent afternoon convection that can flatten the daytime high[1][5][12]. The settlement source is the Wunderground daily history page for RCSS, so the final outcome will depend on the station’s *highest recorded* Celsius temperature rather than a city-wide average or forecast headline.
