87° to 88° · PRE-WINDOW
Quick read
- pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 moved “87° to 88°” from 22% to 32% (+10 pts).
- Later data cutoff: Oct 31 11:00Z → Oct 31 17:00Z; same model version, so the move reflects inputs, not a model change.
- Primary inputs changed: National Blend spread, GFS MOS forecast high, National Blend of Models forecast high.
- The Kalshi mid captured with each snapshot went from 6% to 7%.
What changed in the inputs
Between the snapshot captured at Oct 31 14:02Z (data cutoff Oct 31 11:00Z) and the one at Oct 31 17:00Z (cutoff Oct 31 17:00Z), the same model version — pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 — moved “87° to 88°” from 22% to 32%. The model inputs that changed: National Blend spread from 3°F to 2°F; GFS MOS forecast high from 87°F to 89°F; National Blend of Models forecast high from 85°F to 86°F.
