90° on Nov. 12, 2002, the hottest reading for this week of the year since 1942. Next is 89° in 1979.
West Vero Corridor’s center stands about 30 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 20 ft to 40 ft, a difference of 20 ft: nearly flat ground.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Anastasia Formation (sand, limestone), 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: Pleistocene, less than 2.6 million years old. About 13 mi of the line.
Sand. Age: Holocene, less than 12,000 years old. About 6 mi of the line.
Sand, limestone. Age: Late Pliocene to Pleistocene, less than 3.6 million years old. About 2 mi of the line.
