AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Frazier Park about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the desert Southwest three days ago, and over southern California a day ago, about 720 miles back along its path. The nine paths traced from around the city fan out, so treat that as a best guess. It came down from about 10,200 feet up, warming and drying as it sank. Near the ground the air came from the Sonoran Desert; at 10,000 feet, from Baja California. 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.

What Frazier Park stands on

Frazier Park’s center stands about 4,650 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 4,010 ft to 7,680 ft, a difference of 3,670 ft: mountain country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Mount Pinos, about 8,820 ft, 12 miles west.

Under the town center the state geologic map shows Quaternary alluvium and marine deposits (coarse-detrital), from the Pleistocene to Holocene, less than 2.6 million years old.

The section below crosses 4 rock units mapped at the surface.
