AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over Wautoma about 5,000 feet above the ground was over British Columbia three days ago, and over the northern Plains a day ago, about 1,990 miles back along its path. Near the ground the air came from Canada; at 10,000 feet, from the open Pacific. It has stayed over land, which is why it feels dry. Traced back 72 hours through NOAA’s hourly RAP analyses and the GFS beyond them, nine paths at each of three heights.

THE GROUND

What Wautoma stands on

Wautoma’s center stands about 870 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 840 ft to 1,070 ft, a difference of 230 ft: rolling country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Mount Morris, about 1,180 ft, 6 miles east-northeast.

Under the town center the state geologic map shows Cambrian, undivided (sandstone), from the Cambrian, 487 to 542 million years old.

THE WATER

Where Wautoma’s rain goes

A raindrop that lands in Wautoma reaches Lake Michigan by way of the White River and the Fox River: about 130 river miles. From there it moves on through the Great Lakes, over Niagara Falls and down the St. Lawrence to the Atlantic.

THE WAY DOWN, TO SCALE
Wautoma≈ 130 mi · Lake Michigan
FROM THE CENTER OF WAUTOMA ≈ 130 mi to Lake Michigan and the St. Lawrence White River → Fox River

Lakes on the way: Lake Winnebago 6124 and Lake Butte des Morts.
