AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Toyei about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the southern Rockies three days ago, and over Texas a day ago, about 1,150 miles back along its path. Most of the nine paths traced from around the city agree. It came down from about 11,000 feet up, warming and drying as it sank. Near the ground the air came from the Rockies; at 10,000 feet, from the central Plains. It has stayed over land, which is why it feels dry. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses, nine paths at each of three heights.

THE GROUND

What Toyei stands on

Toyei’s center stands about 6,540 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 6,210 ft to 6,660 ft, a difference of 450 ft: hilly country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Balakai Point, about 7,440 ft, 12 miles north-northeast.

Under the town center the state geologic map shows Pliocene to middle Miocene deposits (conglomerate, sandstone), from the Early Miocene to Pleistocene, 2 to 16 million years old.

The section below crosses 3 rock units mapped at the surface.

Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 14×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.

Rock at the surface along the line

Pliocene to middle Miocene deposits

Conglomerate, sandstone. Age: Early Miocene to Pleistocene, 2 to 16 million years old. About 14 mi of the line.

Cretaceous sedimentary rocks

Sandstone, shale. Age: Late Cretaceous, 88 to 97 million years old. About 9 mi of the line.

Sedimentary rocks of the Late Cretaceous Mesaverde Group

Sandstone, shale, coal. Age: Late Cretaceous, 84 to 88 million years old. About 0.7 mi of the line.

From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale.

THE WATER

Where Toyei’s rain goes

A raindrop that lands in Toyei reaches the Gulf of California by way of Pueblo Colorado Wash, Cottonwood Wash, the Little Colorado and the Colorado: about 1,010 river miles.

THE WAY DOWN, TO SCALE
Toyei≈ 1,010 mi · the Gulf of California
FROM THE CENTER OF TOYEI ≈ 1,010 mi to the Gulf of California Pueblo Colorado Wash → Cottonwood Wash → Little Colorado → Colorado

Lakes on the way: Lake Mead, Lake Mohave and Lake Havasu.

290 miles of the trip are on the Colorado.

Often dry. About 30% of the way is mapped as streams that run only after rain or snowmelt; the water makes the whole trip in floods.

Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of Toyei; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
