8° on Nov. 13, 2019, the coldest reading for this week of the year since 1871. Next is 9° in 1933.
Haskins’s center stands about 660 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 600 ft to 700 ft, a difference of 100 ft: gently rolling country.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Tymochtee and Greenfield Formations, Undivided (dolostone), from the Silurian, 428 to 445 million years old.
The section below crosses 7 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 64×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.

Dolostone. Age: Devonian, 359 to 422 million years old. About 5 mi of the line.
Dolostone. Age: Silurian, 428 to 445 million years old. About 4 mi of the line.
Dolostone, shale, limestone. Age: Devonian, 359 to 422 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Dolostone. Age: Silurian, 422 to 445 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Limestone. Age: Devonian, 359 to 422 million years old. About 1 mi of the line.
From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale. 1 smaller unit along the line are not listed.

A raindrop that lands in Haskins reaches Lake Erie by way of the Maumee: about 20 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 Haskins; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Haskins has a hot-summer humid continental climate. Summer afternoons average 87° in July; winter nights fall to about 20° in January. A normal year brings about 37 inches of snow; with the rain, that comes to about 35 inches of water.
On November 14 Haskins normally reaches 52° and falls to 35°. The record high is 72°, in 1909; the record low 11°, in 1986. The most rain on this date, 1.42 in, fell in 1879.
Normals 1991–2020 and records since 1871 from the Toledo Area threaded record (Toledo Express Airport, 10 miles north-northwest). NOAA, through RCC-ACIS.
