AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Brooksville about 5,000 feet above the ground was over the southern Plains three days ago, and over the Ozarks a day ago, about 710 miles back along its path. Near the ground the air came from Texas; at 10,000 feet, from the northern Plains. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses, nine paths at each of three heights.

THE GROUND

What Brooksville stands on

Brooksville’s center stands about 960 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 910 ft to 1,100 ft, a difference of 190 ft: gently rolling country.

Under the town center the state geologic map shows Alluvium (fine-detrital), from the Holocene, less than 12,000 years old.

The section below crosses 5 rock units mapped at the surface.
