YES if AEMET's Meteoalerta archive for 13 August 2026 shows at least one area in Spain issued an 'aviso naranja' (orange) or 'aviso rojo' (red) specifically for extreme high temperatures at any time during that calendar date. Otherwise NO. AEMET (Agencia Estatal de Meteorología) is the authoritative source; independent Spanish news outlets may be used as corroboration.
How markets are built and settledPredictions close on Aug 12, 2026, and the market is expected to resolve on Aug 14, 2026. The outcome will be settled against aemet.es. For now, the crowd puts YES at 81%, based on 12 predictions.

How markets are built and settledConsidering the current AEMET warnings showing multiple areas in orange for extreme heat, I’d say it’s quite likely to be confirmed. Expect at least one area to hit that mark.
