Trader consensus on Polymarket heavily favors 4-5 inches of precipitation in New York City for March (39% implied probability), closely tracking the climatological average of about 4.3 inches from NOAA's 30-year normals, driven by recurring cyclonic storms and frontal boundaries typical of the Northeast's transitional spring weather. The 5-6 inch (24.5%) and >6 inch (20.5%) outcomes reflect elevated risks from emerging La Niña conditions, which NOAA's Climate Prediction Center forecasts to boost above-normal wetness in the region through early spring via stronger Pacific jet stream influences. Recent GFS and ECMWF ensemble models show a wet bias for the month's latter half, with preliminary totals already nearing 2 inches amid persistent mid-Atlantic moisture, though model spread underscores resolution uncertainty tied to exact storm tracks.

If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, then this market will resolve to the higher range bracket.
The resolution source for this market will be NOAA, specifically the figure for March 2026 when the "Monthly summarized data" for "Central Park NY" is selected with the variable set to "Precipitation" at the https://www.weather.gov/wrh/climate?wfo=okx link once that figure is finalized for the whole month of March 2026.
The resolution source for this market measures precipitation to 2 decimal places (e.g., 1.54), thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving this market. Any revisions to precipitation recorded after data is finalized for this market's timeframe will not be considered for this market's resolution.
