AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Batesville about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the Gulf of Alaska three days ago, and over the northern Plains a day ago, about 3,360 miles back along its path. It came down from about 16,000 feet up, warming and drying as it sank. Near the ground the air came from the Canadian Prairies; at 10,000 feet, from the open Pacific. 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.

THE GROUND

What Batesville stands on

Batesville’s center stands about 900 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 850 ft to 1,290 ft, a difference of 440 ft: hilly country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Ranker Knob, about 1,270 ft, 8 miles south.

Under the town center the state geologic map shows Conemaugh Group (shale, siltstone, mudstone), from the Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old.

The section below crosses 2 rock units mapped at the surface.
