Lagos, Nigeria's largest city, experiences tropical climate with consistently warm temperatures year-round. April falls during the rainy season, with average daily highs typically ranging between 28°C and 32°C depending on atmospheric conditions and cloud cover. This market targets the exact threshold of 29°C as the day's maximum temperature, reflecting the precision possible in weather prediction markets. With current odds at just 1% for YES, traders are expressing strong confidence that Lagos's actual maximum temperature on April 20 will diverge from 29°C—whether cooler due to heavy cloud cover and afternoon rainfall, or warmer under intense equatorial sun. Weather outcomes depend on measurable meteorological data reported by official weather stations, making this market fully resolvable and transparent. The 1% price indicates traders view this specific outcome as unlikely among the broader range of possible daily highs, highlighting the inherent difficulty of predicting exact temperature thresholds in tropical climates. Sufficient market liquidity provides traders with viable opportunity to express their weather forecasts.
This market resolves YES if Lagos's highest recorded temperature on April 20, 2026 equals exactly 29°C according to official meteorological data. The market expires at the end of April 20, 2026 UTC.
