Results Aug 17🤖 Context
The market required that the cyclone's centre be reported to have crossed from sea onto Mexican territory no later than August 16, 2026 at or before 11:59 p.m. Mexico City time (UTC−06:00), as stated by SMN/CONAGUA, NHC/NOAA, another national meteorological agency, or at least two independent reputable news outlets. Official advisories and news show Depresión Tropical Ocho‑E became Tropical Storm Hernán and on August 13, 2026 was located about 2,350 km west of Cabo San Lucas at roughly 18.1°N, 131.9°W, with forecasts keeping it over open water and no report of its centre making landfall through the August 16 cutoff. Because no official agency or two independent reputable outlets reported the centre crossing onto Mexican mainland or islands by the deadline, the market resolves no.

Final crowd probability
The crowd was 85% sure, and they nailed it.
Why: Multiple independent credible reports and official advisories in the supplied evidence show that Depresión Tropical Ocho‑E intensified to Tropical Storm Hernán and was located well west of the Mexican coast (about 2,350 km west of Cabo San Lucas; position quoted as ~18.1°N, 131.9°W in SMN/press advisories on 2026-08-13) and was forecast to continue moving over open waters and weaken. The included news items (Infobae, Cronista, Informador) and forecasts (NHC summary reported by Watchers/others) explicitly state the system did not represent a threat to Mexico and no source in the provided material reports the cyclone’s center crossing onto Mexican mainland or islands through the resolution cutoff (2026-08-16 23:59 CDT). On that basis the centre did not cross onto Mexican territory by the deadline.

With only a few days left, the forecast shows Ocho-E remains offshore. Unless it makes a sudden turn, it's unlikely to hit Mexico directly. Bet against it landing.
