46° on Nov. 11, 2025, the coldest reading for this week of the year since 1990. Next is 49° in 1991.
Hillsboro Pines’s center stands about 20 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 10 ft to 30 ft, a difference of 20 ft: nearly flat ground.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Miami Limestone (limestone, sandstone), from the Pleistocene, less than 2.6 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 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, limestone. Age: Late Pliocene to Pleistocene, less than 3.6 million years old. About 9 mi of the line.
Limestone, sandstone. Age: Pleistocene, less than 2.6 million years old. About 9 mi of the line.
Sand, limestone. Age: Pleistocene, less than 2.6 million years old. About 0.4 mi of the line.
