Resolved: No
Results Jul 22🤖 Context
YES if the National Hurricane Center (NHC) records that the cyclone identified as "Elida" had maximum sustained 1-minute winds of at least 74 miles per hour (64 knots) at any time on or before 12:00 UTC on July 22, 2026. If the NHC publishes no operational advisory for a system named "Elida" but explicitly attributes those winds to an identifiably equivalent system under a different name in an NHC advisory or in the NHC's official post-storm Tropical Cyclone Report, that NHC statement counts as YES. If no NHC advisory or Tropical Cyclone Report exists for the system by the resolution time, the market resolves NO.

Final crowd probability
The crowd was 54% sure, and they got it wrong.
Why: The National Hurricane Center's operational products for Elida in the supplied evidence show it never reached hurricane strength. Public Advisory #24 (800 AM PDT / 1500 UTC on 2026-07-20) explicitly lists maximum sustained winds of 40 mph. The corresponding NHC Discussion #24 gives an initial intensity of 35 kt and forecasts continued weakening through 22/1200 UTC (20 kt at 22/1200Z). The NHC archive entry confirms these advisories were the official NHC products for Elida. None of the provided NHC advisories or discussions record Elida having 1‑minute sustained winds ≥74 mph (64 kt) on or before 12:00 UTC on 2026-07-22.
