London’s June 24 highest-temperature market is moving during a rare red-alert heatwave across Europe. With the expected London peak sitting around 93-96°F, traders are leaning toward 35°C or below, but thunderstorms could complicate the afternoon high and keep the upper outcomes alive.

5 Minute ReadHottest Temperature in London Odds: How Hot Will London Reach on Wednesday, June 24th Amid European Heat Wave?
The Kalshi market for the highest temperature in London on Wednesday, June 24, has 35°C or below as the clear favorite at 65%. The next two main outcomes are 36°C at 27% and 37°C at 9%.
The Celsius-to-Fahrenheit conversions are straightforward: 35°C is 95°F, 36°C is 96.8°F, and 37°C is 98.6°F. That puts the main trading range right around the expected forecast window, with the market effectively asking whether London tops out in the mid-90s or pushes into a more extreme upper-90s outcome.

London Hottest Temperature Odds Breakdown
35°C Or Below (65%) — 95°F Or Cooler
The 35°C or below outcome is the market favorite because it captures the most likely forecast band. If London peaks around 93-95°F, or even briefly touches 35°C without clearing it into the next bucket, this contract is positioned to win.
The key support for this side is that the local forecast is not necessarily calling for London itself to hit the most extreme readings being discussed across southern England. The broader red warning matters, but the city-specific expectation still looks closer to the mid-90s than a clear push toward 99°F. That is why the market has moved strongly toward the lower bucket.
Thunderstorms are also important because they could cut off the hottest part of the day. If clouds build, rain arrives, or storm outflow cools the city during the afternoon, London may never get the clean solar heating needed to reach 36°C or 37°C. That makes 35°C or below the most logical favorite.
36°C (27%) — 97°F
The 36°C outcome is the middle path, and it is live if the forecast verifies on the high end. A peak of 97°F would only require London to outperform the more conservative city forecast by a couple degrees, which is not impossible during a red-alert heat event.
This is the outcome for bettors who believe the heat hangs on long enough before storms interfere. London’s urban heat effect, high humidity, and broader regional setup could all help push the city above 95°F if the sun stays out through the early and mid-afternoon. That would make 36°C the cleanest upset against the favorite.
The downside is that 36°C is a narrow target. It needs London to run hot, but not quite hot enough to push into the 37°C bucket. That makes it more fragile than 35°C or below, but still much more realistic than the highest outcome given the expected 93-96°F range.
37°C (9%) — 99°F
The 37°C outcome is the true heatwave spike scenario. At 98.6°F, this would require London to beat the expected forecast range and approach the kind of extreme readings being discussed in the broader red warning.
This is not impossible given the larger European heatwave setup. Britain is under rare extreme heat alerts, parts of the region could see exceptional temperatures, and the overall air mass is dangerous enough that a surprise late-afternoon surge cannot be ruled out. If London gets full sunshine for longer than expected and storms stay away until after the peak, 37°C can still happen.
The reason it is only 9% is that too much has to go right. The forecast range, the favorite’s market movement, and the thunderstorm risk all work against it. This is the longshot outcome for a record-style heat spike, not the base case.
London Temperature Market Outlook
The cleanest market read is 35°C or below at 65%. It fits the expected 93-96°F forecast range, benefits from the storm-risk scenario, and gives the most room for London to stay hot without needing the most extreme regional temperatures to verify inside the city.
The 36°C outcome at 27% is the live alternative if the afternoon stays sunnier and hotter than expected. The 37°C outcome at 9% is the blowoff heat scenario, and while the red-alert environment keeps it on the board, thunderstorms and the current forecast band make it the hardest of the three main outcomes to trust.
