توقع: Highest temperature in Seoul on July 20?

Platform comparison

Market context

Seoul is entering its peak summer heatwave period, with July consistently delivering the highest daily temperatures of the year at the Incheon International Airport station. The current 0% crowd-implied probability for any specific high-temperature range suggests traders are either misreading the settlement window or betting on an extreme, unseasonable cool day that contradicts historical patterns. Historically, Seoul’s July averages sit between 21°C and 28°C, with humidity levels reaching 80% and precipitation chances at 43%, creating conditions that frequently push maximums above 30°C during heat spikes [1]. Comparable cases from the past decade show that temperatures below 25°C on 20 July are rare anomalies, usually tied to heavy monsoon rain or frontal systems, making the current pricing appear detached from climatic reality.

Traders should monitor the Korea Meteorological Administration’s daily heatwave advisories and real-time radar for monsoon front movements, as these are the primary catalysts that could suppress temperatures below the 28°C average. A sudden shift in the East Asian monsoon or an unexpected cold front arriving from the north could be the only viable mechanism to justify the current 0% probability, though such events are statistically unlikely in mid-July. Recent weather bulletins from Wunderground and local Korean outlets indicate no immediate large-scale cooling systems forecast for 20 July 2026, reinforcing the expectation that temperatures will align with the typical 28°C+ range [1]. The settlement depends entirely on the official reading at Incheon Airport, so any discrepancy between city centre reports and airport data could create volatility in the final hours before the 12:00Z cutoff.

What's the difference between match odds and outright odds?

Can I import form data and lineups?

This page shows the live Polymarket quote as an implied probability. Form data and lineups must be researched separately via sports data providers (e.g. Soccerway, ESPN, FBref) — we surface the market probability, not the sport analysis.
