Forecast consensus from official sources including the China Meteorological Administration centers on a daily maximum of 31–32°C at Shanghai Pudong International Airport for August 21, 2026, producing the market’s near-even split between those two outcomes. Easterly flow and light rain or showers are expected to limit insolation and cap temperatures near the lower end of the range, while scattered or broken cloud cover in some numerical model runs could permit brief afternoon peaks to 32°C. Historical August climatology shows typical highs near 31–32°C under similar synoptic patterns, and traders are weighting the latest short-range guidance against model spread on precipitation timing. Real-time surface observations throughout the day will determine the official peak used for resolution.
