75° on Nov. 11, 2020, the hottest reading for this week of the year since 1996. Next is 68° in 2005.
Edgewood’s center stands about 690 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 560 ft to 890 ft, a difference of 330 ft: rolling country.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Ohio Shale (shale, black-shale), from the Devonian, 359 to 422 million years old.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 39×. 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, black-shale. Age: Devonian, 359 to 422 million years old. About 15 mi of the line.

A raindrop that lands in Edgewood reaches Lake Erie by way of Fields Brook and the Ashtabula: about 5 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 Edgewood; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Edgewood has a warm-summer humid continental climate. Summer afternoons average 80° in July; winter nights fall to about 17° in January. A normal year brings about 111 inches of snow; with the rain, that comes to about 48 inches of water.
On November 14 Edgewood normally reaches 48° and falls to 33°. The record high is 67°, in 2010; the record low 17°, in 1996. The most rain on this date, 0.53 in, fell in 2021.
