Highest temperature in Wellington on July 7?

Platform comparison

Market context

The real-world event is the daily high temperature at Wellington International Airport on 7 July 2026, with current forecasts pointing to a cool, wet day. Early morning readings show 14°C with light rain and strong south-westerly winds, while BBC Weather confirms a high of 14°C and a low of 11°C for the day[5]. The National Weather Service records similar conditions at 2:30 am, reinforcing the likelihood of temperatures clustering around 13–14°C[3].

Historically, July is Wellington’s coldest month, with average highs of 54°F (12.2°C) and lows of 47°F (8.3°C), making extreme heat highly improbable[7]. Comparable cases from recent years show highs rarely exceeding 15°C during early July, even under clearer skies[6]. This climatic baseline explains the crowd-implied 0% probability for any outcome above 14°C, as the market correctly prices in the region’s typical winter chill[1].

Traders should monitor Wunderground’s hourly updates for the official settlement figure, as the resolution source is the highest temperature recorded at any time on 7 July[4]. Long-range forecast guidance and any sudden shifts in wind patterns or cloud cover could alter the final reading, though current models remain stable[2]. No major weather announcements are expected, but real-time data from the airport station will be critical once the settlement window closes at 12:00 UTC on 7 July 2026.
