Highest temperature in Munich on July 24?

Platform comparison

Market context

Munich's highest temperature on 24 July 2026 will be recorded at Munich Airport Station and resolved against historical weather data. The settlement window closes at midday on that date, meaning the final reading will capture the peak temperature for the calendar day. Current crowd-implied probability sits at 0%, suggesting traders are either awaiting range options or the market has not yet attracted sufficient liquidity to establish meaningful odds.

Munich's July climate is relatively stable year-on-year, with average highs clustering between 23–25°C and extremes rarely exceeding 30°C except during heatwave events. The city's 30-year mean for late July sits around 24°C, though the 2003 European heatwave pushed temperatures above 35°C. Recent summers have shown increased volatility; July 2022 saw peaks near 33°C across Bavaria, whilst 2021 remained cooler at around 26°C. These precedents suggest the market's current 0% reading reflects either missing range brackets or genuine uncertainty about whether this particular date will fall within specified thresholds.

Traders should monitor European weather forecasting from late June onwards, particularly the North Atlantic Oscillation and high-pressure systems developing over Central Europe. The German Meteorological Service (Deutscher Wetterdienst) publishes extended outlooks roughly two weeks ahead; any signals of continental heat advection would shift probabilities materially. Munich Airport Station's elevation and location near the Isar valley can produce localised temperature variations, making site-specific historical records from Wunderground essential for calibrating expectations rather than relying on broader regional forecasts.
