Jeromesville’s center stands about 1,000 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 950 ft to 1,240 ft, a difference of 290 ft: rolling country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Bald Knob, about 1,260 ft, 11 miles south-southwest.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Maxville Limestone; Rushville, Logan, and Cuyhoga Formations, Undivided (shale, siltstone, sandstone), from the Devonian to Carboniferous, 324 to 422 million years old.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 38×. 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, siltstone, sandstone. Age: Devonian to Carboniferous, 324 to 422 million years old. About 24 mi of the line.

A raindrop that lands in Jeromesville reaches the Gulf of America by way of Lake Fork Mohican, the Mohican, the Walhonding, the Muskingum, the Ohio and the Mississippi: about 1,950 river miles.
970 miles of the trip are on the Mississippi.

Jeromesville has a hot-summer humid continental climate. Summer afternoons average 83° in July; winter nights fall to about 19° in January. A normal year brings about 49 inches of snow; with the rain, that comes to about 42 inches of water.
On November 14 Jeromesville normally reaches 50° and falls to 34°. The record high is 71°, in 1971; the record low 11°, in 1986. The most rain on this date, 3.11 in, fell in 1993.
