The Beverly Beach plate. Relief from Copernicus GLO-30; rivers and lakes from USGS NHD; watersheds from the USGS Watershed Boundary Dataset; roads and city limits from Census TIGER 2024.
10.52 inches of rain fell in two days, the most for this week of the year since records began in 1923. The next wettest, 8.20 inches, fell in 2023.
Beverly Beach’s center stands about 7 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 0 ft to 70 ft, a difference of 70 ft: gently rolling country. Open water lies within three miles.
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 64×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Sand, clay. Age: Pleistocene to Holocene, less than 2.6 million years old. About 10 mi of the line.
Sand, limestone. Age: Pleistocene, less than 2.6 million years old. About 1 mi of the line.
Sand. Age: Holocene, less than 12,000 years old. About 1 mi of the line.

A raindrop that lands in Beverly Beach reaches the Atlantic Ocean by way of Bulow Creek: about 35 river miles.
