74° on Nov. 11, 2022, the hottest reading for this week of the year since 1891. Next is 70° in 2012.
Eveline’s center stands about 690 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 570 ft to 820 ft, a difference of 250 ft: rolling country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Boyne Mountain, about 1,180 ft, 12 miles east-southeast.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Antrim Shale (black-shale), from the Late Devonian, 359 to 384 million years old.
The section below crosses 2 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 40×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Limestone. Age: Middle Devonian, 384 to 394 million years old. About 16 mi of the line.
Black-shale. Age: Late Devonian, 359 to 384 million years old. About 7 mi of the line.

A raindrop that lands in Eveline reaches Lake Michigan by way of the Pine River: about 8 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 Eveline; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Eveline has a warm-summer humid continental climate. Summer afternoons average 76° in July; winter nights fall to about 16° in February. A normal year brings about 100 inches of snow; with the rain, that comes to about 34 inches of water.
On November 14 Eveline normally reaches 45° and falls to 34°. The record high is 63°, in 1999; the record low 9°, in 1911. The most rain on this date, 1.95 in, fell in 1927.
Normals 1991–2020 and records since 1891 at Charlevoix, 7 miles northwest. NOAA, through RCC-ACIS.
