Polymarket Dallas temperature: settles on KDAL

KDAL is Dallas Love Field, Dallas. Polymarket settles temperature contracts here. Below: the resolution source each venue names, when the station reports, and how long a reading takes to reach the public feed.

This city settles on two different stations

Polymarket uses KDAL (Dallas Love Field). Kalshi settles the same city on KDFW (Dallas-Fort Worth International) instead. The two sites can report different temperatures at the same moment and land in different contract buckets on the same day, so a reading from one tells you nothing definitive about the other.
