77° on Nov. 11, 2020, the hottest reading for this week of the year since 1895. Next is 73° in 1990.
Celoron’s center stands about 1,390 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 1,300 ft to 1,720 ft, a difference of 420 ft: hilly country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Arab Hill, about 2,150 ft, 15 miles north-northeast.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Conneaut Group, undivided (shale, sandstone), from the Late Devonian, 359 to 384 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 21×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Shale, sandstone. Age: Late Devonian, 359 to 384 million years old. About 14 mi of the line.
Shale. Age: Late Devonian, 359 to 384 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Shale, siltstone. Age: Late Devonian, 359 to 384 million years old. About 0.5 mi of the line.

A raindrop that lands in Celoron reaches the Gulf of America by way of Chautauqua Lake, the Chadakoin, Cassadaga Creek, Conewango Creek, the Allegheny, the Ohio and the Mississippi: about 2,180 river miles.
Lake on the way: Chautauqua Lake.
970 miles of the trip are on the Ohio.
Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of Celoron; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Celoron has a warm-summer humid continental climate. Summer afternoons average 80° in July; winter nights fall to about 16° in January. A normal year brings about 98 inches of snow; with the rain, that comes to about 46 inches of water.
On November 14 Celoron normally reaches 49° and falls to 31°. The record high is 71°, in 2010; the record low 7°, in 1905. The most rain on this date, 0.88 in, fell in 1988.
