15° on Nov. 15, 1969, the coldest reading for this week of the year since 1946. Next is 16° in 2025.
Euharlee’s center stands about 690 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 660 ft to 910 ft, a difference of 250 ft: rolling country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Pine Mountain, about 1,540 ft, 11 miles east-northeast.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Knox Group undifferentiated (dolostone), from the Cambrian to Ordovician, 445 to 542 million years old.
The section below crosses 5 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 35×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Dolostone. Age: Cambrian to Ordovician, 445 to 542 million years old. About 13 mi of the line.
Phyllite, quartzite. Age: Precambrian to Paleozoic. About 6 mi of the line.
Limestone, shale. Age: Cambrian, 487 to 542 million years old. About 2 mi of the line.
Limestone. Age: Ordovician, 445 to 487 million years old. About 1 mi of the line.
Limestone. Age: Cambrian, 487 to 497 million years old. About 1 mi of the line.

A raindrop that lands in Euharlee reaches Mobile Bay and the Gulf of America by way of the Etowah, the Coosa, the Alabama and the Mobile: about 670 river miles.
Lake on the way: Lay Lake.
310 miles of the trip are on the Alabama.
Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of Euharlee; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Euharlee has a humid subtropical climate. Summer afternoons average 88° in July; winter nights fall to about 29° in January. About 52 inches of rain fall in a normal year.
On November 14 Euharlee normally reaches 62° and falls to 38°. The record high is 78°, in 1964; the record low 18°, in 2019. The most rain on this date, 1.70 in, fell in 1972.
Normals 1991–2020 and records since 1946 at Allatoona Dam 2, 12 miles east, 280 ft higher. NOAA, through RCC-ACIS.
