Robinhood has listed a short-term weather contract that asks a simple local question: what will the lowest temperature be in Oklahoma City on July 17, 2026? The derivative uses official observations from the Will Rogers World Airport station (KOKC) as the authoritative source for settlement.
How the contract works
The contract trades on a fixed event date and resolves based on the final daily temperature values published in Weather Underground’s historical data display for KOKC. Trading is available around the clock with a brief maintenance window on Wednesday mornings.
- Event date: July 17, 2026
- Settlement source: Weather Underground summary data for Will Rogers World Airport (KOKC)
- Trading hours: 24 hours daily except Wednesday 3:00–3:15 a.m. ET
- Payout: $1 per contract if the prediction is correct
Robinhood notes that the contract "resolves based solely on the final daily temperature values" shown in the summary table for the specified station and date once the first observation of the subsequent calendar day is published. Typically, payout occurs within about an hour after the event resolution, according to the listing.
What local residents should know
These types of contracts tie a financial outcome to an official meteorological record. For Oklahoma City, that means the official low for July 17, 2026 at Will Rogers World Airport will determine winners and losers. Traders may also close positions before the event resolves; the platform warns additional fees apply and directs users to full contract terms.
