90° on Nov. 15, 2025, the hottest reading for this week of the year since 1996. Next is 86° in 1999.
Krugerville’s center stands about 680 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 530 ft to 700 ft, a difference of 170 ft: gently rolling country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Pilot Knob, about 840 ft, 15 miles southwest.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Woodbine Formation (sandstone-mudstone), from the Late Cretaceous, 66 to 100 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 64×. 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-mudstone. Age: Late Cretaceous, 66 to 100 million years old. About 11 mi of the line.
Black-shale, siltstone. Age: Late Cretaceous, 66 to 100 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Sand. Age: Pleistocene to Holocene, less than 2.6 million years old. About 2 mi of the line.
Marlstone, limestone. Age: Early Cretaceous to Late Cretaceous, 66 to 145 million years old. About 2 mi of the line.
Fine-detrital, coarse-detrital. Age: Holocene, less than 12,000 years old. About 1 mi of the line.

A raindrop that lands in Krugerville reaches Galveston Bay and the Gulf of America by way of Lake Lewisville, the Elm Fork Trinity and the Trinity: about 500 river miles.
Lakes on the way: Woodlands Golf Course Lake and Lake Lewisville.
270 miles of the trip are on the Trinity.
Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of Krugerville; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Krugerville has a humid subtropical climate. Summer afternoons average 96° in July; winter nights fall to about 32° in January. About 36 inches of rain fall in a normal year.
On November 14 Krugerville normally reaches 67° and falls to 43°. The record high is 86°, in 1999; the record low 21°, in 2018. The most rain on this date, 0.38 in, fell in 2022.
