Quick read
- pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 moved “68° to 69°” from 11% to 22% (+11 pts).
- Later data cutoff: Oct 5 17:00Z → Oct 5 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 4% to 3%.
What changed in the inputs
Between the snapshot captured at Oct 5 17:00Z (data cutoff Oct 5 17:00Z) and the one at Oct 5 23:01Z (cutoff Oct 5 23:00Z), the same model version — pbe-weather-maxtemp@1.1.0 — moved “68° to 69°” from 11% to 22%. The model inputs that changed: GFS MOS forecast high from 66°F to 65°F; National Blend of Models forecast high from 65°F to 66°F.
