73° to 74° · PRE-WINDOW
Quick read
- pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 moved “73° to 74°” from 36% to 25% (−11 pts).
- Later data cutoff: Nov 1 17:00Z → Nov 1 23:00Z; 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 61% to 65%.
What changed in the inputs
Between the snapshot captured at Nov 1 17:00Z (data cutoff Nov 1 17:00Z) and the one at Nov 1 23:04Z (cutoff Nov 1 23:00Z), the same model version — pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 — moved “73° to 74°” from 36% to 25%. The model inputs that changed: National Blend spread from 2°F to 1°F; GFS MOS forecast high from 74°F to 73°F; National Blend of Models forecast high from 73°F to 72°F.
