توقع: Highest temperature in Hong Kong on July 18?

Platform comparison

Market context

The Hong Kong Observatory will record the highest temperature in Hong Kong on 18 July 2026, measured to one decimal place in degrees Celsius. This reading forms the basis for settlement, with the exact figure determining which temperature band resolves as correct. The Observatory's official daily maximum, published in its Daily Extract climate data, serves as the sole authoritative source.

July in Hong Kong typically sees daily maxima between 32°C and 34°C, though extremes have occasionally pushed higher. The territory's all-time record stands at 39.9°C, set in August 1967. Historical data from the Observatory shows that mid-July temperatures cluster around 33–34°C under normal monsoon conditions, with variation driven primarily by whether the Southwest Monsoon brings moisture-laden air or drier continental flow. Anomalously hot days—those exceeding 35°C—occur roughly once per decade during summer months, making them statistically uncommon but not unprecedented.

Traders should monitor the broader atmospheric pattern developing in early July 2026, particularly the position and intensity of the Pacific high-pressure system and any tropical cyclone activity in the region. The Observatory publishes extended forecasts approximately 10 days ahead; these become increasingly reliable 5–7 days before the settlement date. Urban heat island effects in central Hong Kong can elevate readings by 1–2°C relative to the airport station, though the Observatory's official measurement site remains consistent. Any significant weather system—whether a typhoon approach or a ridge of high pressure—will be flagged in meteorological bulletins well before 18 July.
