AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Perrysburg about 5,000 feet above the ground was over British Columbia three days ago, and over Ontario a day ago, about 2,180 miles back along its path. It has stayed over land, which is why it feels dry. 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 Perrysburg stands on

Perrysburg’s center stands about 1,290 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 740 ft to 1,690 ft, a difference of 950 ft: steep hill country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Arab Hill, about 2,150 ft, 14 miles southwest.

Under the town center the state geologic map shows Northeast Shale and Shumla Siltstone (shale, siltstone), from the Late Devonian, 359 to 384 million years old.
