Quick read

  • pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 moved “87° to 88°” from 36% to 16% (−20 pts).
  • Later data cutoff: Oct 7 11:00Z → Oct 7 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 10% to 9%.

What changed in the inputs

Between the snapshot captured at Oct 7 14:02Z (data cutoff Oct 7 11:00Z) and the one at Oct 7 17:00Z (cutoff Oct 7 17:00Z), the same model version — pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 — moved “87° to 88°” from 36% to 16%. The model inputs that changed: National Blend spread from 3°F to 2°F; GFS MOS forecast high from 85°F to 84°F; National Blend of Models forecast high from 87°F to 85°F.

RESOLUTION RULE
Resolves on
The Weather Company (weather.com/kalshi) — The Weather Company daily maximum temperature for CLILAX (weather.com/kalshi)
Independent check
NWS Daily Climate Report CLILAX (WFO LOX); NOAA RCC-ACIS USW00023174
Measurement
Maximum temperature for the climate day 2026-10-08, 00:00-24:00 local standard time (UTC-8)
Rounding
Whole degrees Fahrenheit as reported; preliminary values may differ by rounding/conversion
Exceptions
Preliminary data may be revised; the exchange may hold expiration until a non-erroneous revision, else last fair price
If the maximum temperature recorded at Los Angeles (CLILAX) for Oct 8, 2026, is between 87-88° fahrenheit according to The Weather Company, then the market resolves to Yes.
MODEL LIMITATIONS
  • Pre-window only; no current-conditions input
  • Guidance can run cold/hot in unusual regimes (see LA diagnostic, 2026-10-04)
