Highest temperature in Los Angeles on Oct 13, 2026?
67° or below · PRE-WINDOW
Quick read
- pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 moved “67° or below” from 14% to 25% (+11 pts).
- Later data cutoff: Oct 12 17:00Z → Oct 12 23:00Z; same model version, so the move reflects inputs, not a model change.
- Primary inputs changed: GFS MOS forecast high, National Blend of Models forecast high.
- The Kalshi mid captured with each snapshot went from 2% to 2%.
What changed in the inputs
Between the snapshot captured at Oct 12 17:00Z (data cutoff Oct 12 17:00Z) and the one at Oct 12 23:00Z (cutoff Oct 12 23:00Z), the same model version — pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 — moved “67° or below” from 14% to 25%. The model inputs that changed: GFS MOS forecast high from 72°F to 71°F; National Blend of Models forecast high from 70°F to 69°F.
