YES if the Agencia Estatal de Meteorología (AEMET) publishes on its official website an official press release, bulletin, or 'aviso especial' explicitly stating that the 'ola de calor' (or 'cuarta ola de calor') has ended or is no longer in effect in Spain, dated on or before August 17, 2026. Corroboration by major news outlets reporting AEMET's statement (for example EFE, El País, RTVE, Reuters) is acceptable. Otherwise NO.
How markets are built and settledPredictions close on Aug 16, 2026, and the market is expected to resolve on Aug 18, 2026. The outcome will be settled against efe.com. For now, the crowd puts YES at 55%, based on 0 predictions.

How markets are built and settledGiven today's date, AEMET needs to act fast. With just a few days left, a clear statement seems unlikely. Expect the heatwave to continue, so I'm betting NO.
