Quick read
- pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 moved “91° or below” from 59% to 75% (+16 pts).
- Later data cutoff: Oct 5 11:00Z → Oct 5 17:00Z; 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.
- A comparable market observation was not captured with both snapshots, so no market move is stated.
What changed in the inputs
Between the snapshot captured at Oct 5 14:00Z (data cutoff Oct 5 11:00Z) and the one at Oct 5 17:00Z (cutoff Oct 5 17:00Z), the same model version — pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 — moved “91° or below” from 59% to 75%. The model inputs that changed: GFS MOS forecast high from 87°F to 92°F; National Blend of Models forecast high from 91°F to 90°F.
| Input | Before | After | Primary |
