73° on Nov. 12, 1949, the hottest reading for this week of the year since 1896. Next is 72° in 1931.
Vienna Center’s center stands about 1,200 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 1,040 ft to 1,240 ft, a difference of 200 ft: rolling country.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Allegheny and Pottsville Groups, Undivided (shale, siltstone), from the Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old.
The section below crosses 6 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 43×. 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 10 mi of the line.
Shale, siltstone. Age: Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old. About 9 mi of the line.
Siltstone, shale. Age: Carboniferous, 324 to 359 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Sandstone. Age: Carboniferous, 324 to 359 million years old. About 1 mi of the line.
Sandstone, shale. Age: Devonian, 359 to 422 million years old. About 0.9 mi of the line.
Sandstone, conglomerate. Age: Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old. About 0.8 mi of the line.
From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale.

A raindrop that lands in Vienna Center reaches the Gulf of America by way of Squaw Creek, the Mahoning, the Beaver, the Ohio and the Mississippi: about 1,980 river miles.
970 miles of the trip are on the Mississippi.
Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of Vienna Center; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Vienna Center has a warm-summer humid continental climate. Summer afternoons average 83° in July; winter nights fall to about 19° in January. A normal year brings about 68 inches of snow; with the rain, that comes to about 41 inches of water.
On November 14 Vienna Center normally reaches 50° and falls to 34°. The record high is 69°, in 1994; the record low 12°, in 1986. The most rain on this date, 2.05 in, fell in 1993.
