AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Napoli about 5,000 feet above the ground was over Canada three days ago, and over the Great Lakes a day ago, about 2,460 miles back along its path. It feels dry all the same. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses and the GFS beyond them, nine paths at each of three heights.

THIS WEEK, SIX YEARS AGO Nov. 11, 2020

The hottest this week has been

74° on Nov. 11, 2020, the hottest reading for this week of the year since 1941. Next is 70° in 1956.

THE GROUND

What Napoli stands on

Napoli’s center stands about 1,730 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 1,440 ft to 2,350 ft, a difference of 910 ft: steep hill country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Shutts Hill, about 2,460 ft, 3 miles east-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.
