Current National Weather Service and Weather Prediction Center guidance for August 22, 2026, shows scattered showers and thunderstorms tied to a slow-moving frontal boundary and lingering moisture across parts of the Midwest, Ohio Valley, and Southeast, while much of the West and Southwest remain dry under high pressure. Model consensus from the latest short-range runs highlights modest precipitation probabilities in the eastern half of the country, with any measurable rain hinging on convective initiation and steering flow rather than widespread stratiform events. Official outlooks note typical late-summer patterns, including locally heavy downpours where instability peaks, but limited coverage overall compared to climatological averages. Traders should monitor updated WPC probabilistic guidance and hourly observations through the evening as new radar and satellite data refine storm tracks and intensity before markets resolve.

Measurable precipitation means 0.01 inches or more as reported by the PRECIPITATION (IN) figure in the NWS Daily Climate Report (CLI) for the city's station.
A report of trace ("T") does not qualify.
The PRECIPITATION (IN) figure measures total liquid-equivalent precipitation and does not distinguish between precipitation types.
The observation period is the NWS climate day for KNYC: midnight to midnight local standard time. The final CLI report for a climate day is issued the following morning.
Resolution is based on the station's first published precipitation figure for the day. Subsequent revisions or corrections to the published data will not be considered; the first published value is final. If no figure has been published by 11:59 PM ET on the day following the observation date, this market will resolve to "No".
The resolution source for this market is the NWS Daily Climate Report (CLI) for KNYC.
