About This Market

This market tracks the official daily high temperature recorded in Seattle, Washington, on April 3, 2026. It serves as a data-driven gauge for atmospheric expectations during the transition from early spring.

Seattle's April weather is historically characterized by significant variability, often influenced by the transition between cool, wet marine air and warming inland patterns. Meteorological records for early April in the Pacific Northwest frequently show temperatures fluctuating based on the presence of high-pressure ridges or passing cold fronts. These historical patterns provide the baseline for climatological modeling used to estimate temperature ranges.

The market prices reflect the collective anticipation of meteorological conditions, with higher contract prices indicating a greater consensus that the temperature will fall within a specific range.
