76° on Nov. 11, 2022, the hottest reading for this week of the year since 1892. Next is 73° in 2020.
Edenville’s center stands about 690 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 630 ft to 730 ft, a difference of 100 ft: gently rolling country.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Saginaw Formation (sandstone, shale), from the Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old.
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.
Sandstone, shale. Age: Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old. About 24 mi of the line.
From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale.

A raindrop that lands in Edenville reaches Lake Huron by way of the Salt River, the Tittabawassee and the Saginaw: about 65 river miles. From there it moves on through the Great Lakes, over Niagara Falls and down the St. Lawrence to the Atlantic.
Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of Edenville; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Edenville has a warm-summer humid continental climate. Summer afternoons average 82° in July; winter nights fall to about 13° in January. A normal year brings about 48 inches of snow; with the rain, that comes to about 34 inches of water.
On November 14 Edenville normally reaches 46° and falls to 29°. The record high is 64°, in 1989; the record low 8°, in 2019. The most rain on this date, 1.65 in, fell in 1957.
Normals 1991–2020 and records since 1892 at Gladwin, 15 miles north. NOAA, through RCC-ACIS.
