76° on Nov. 11, 2020, the hottest reading for this week of the year since 1893. Next is 74° in 1896.
Warren’s center stands about 1,190 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 1,160 ft to 1,940 ft, a difference of 780 ft: hilly country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Coal Knob, about 2,180 ft, 9 miles east.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Chadakoin Formation (siltstone, shale), from the Late Devonian, 359 to 384 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 19×. 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, siltstone, shale. Age: Devonian to Carboniferous, 324 to 422 million years old. About 8 mi of the line.
Sandstone, conglomerate. Age: Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old. About 6 mi of the line.
Siltstone, conglomerate. Age: Late Devonian, 359 to 384 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Siltstone, shale. Age: Late Devonian, 359 to 384 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Sandstone, siltstone. Age: Carboniferous, 324 to 359 million years old. About 2 mi of the line.
Sandstone, shale. Age: Late Devonian, 359 to 384 million years old. About 2 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 Warren reaches the Gulf of America by way of Conewango Creek, the Allegheny, the Ohio and the Mississippi: about 2,140 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 Warren; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Warren has a warm-summer humid continental climate. Summer afternoons average 81° in July; winter nights fall to about 18° in January. A normal year brings about 72 inches of snow; with the rain, that comes to about 47 inches of water.
On November 14 Warren normally reaches 48° and falls to 32°. The record high is 69°, in 1989; the record low 6°, in 1920. The most rain on this date, 1.27 in, fell in 1972.
