77° on Nov. 11, 2020, the hottest reading for this week of the year since 1921. Next is 72° in 2012.
Tylersburg’s center stands about 1,590 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 1,410 ft to 1,710 ft, a difference of 300 ft: rolling country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Beartown Rocks, about 1,930 ft, 14 miles east-southeast.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Pottsville Formation (sandstone, conglomerate), from the Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old.
The section below crosses 5 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 24×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Sandstone, conglomerate. Age: Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old. About 15 mi of the line.
Sandstone, siltstone. Age: Carboniferous, 324 to 359 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Sandstone. Age: Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Sandstone, siltstone, shale. Age: Devonian to Carboniferous, 324 to 422 million years old. About 2 mi of the line.
Sandstone, shale. Age: Late Devonian, 359 to 384 million years old. About 1 mi of the line.

A raindrop that lands in Tylersburg reaches the Gulf of America by way of Licking Creek, Paint Creek, Deer Creek, the Clarion, the Allegheny, the Ohio and the Mississippi: about 2,070 river miles.
970 miles of the trip are on the Ohio.
Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of Tylersburg; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Tylersburg 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 51 inches of snow; with the rain, that comes to about 47 inches of water.
On November 14 Tylersburg normally reaches 51° and falls to 33°. The record high is 71°, in 1989; the record low 12°, in 1986. The most rain on this date, 0.86 in, fell in 1997.
Normals 1991–2020 and records since 1921 at Tionesta 2 SE Lake, 9 miles northwest, 390 ft lower. NOAA, through RCC-ACIS.
