Quick read
- pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 moved “93° or above” from 3% to 47% (+44 pts).
- Later data cutoff: Oct 6 11:00Z → Oct 6 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 2% to 5%.
What changed in the inputs
Between the snapshot captured at Oct 6 14:02Z (data cutoff Oct 6 11:00Z) and the one at Oct 6 17:00Z (cutoff Oct 6 17:00Z), the same model version — pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 — moved “93° or above” from 3% to 47%. The model inputs that changed: National Blend spread from 3°F to 2°F; GFS MOS forecast high from 90°F to 91°F; National Blend of Models forecast high from 88°F to 92°F.
