AIR MAIL

Where today’s air came from

The air arriving over White Lake about 5,000 feet above the ground was over British Columbia three days ago, and over the northern Plains a day ago, about 2,080 miles back along its path. Near the ground the air came from Canada; at 10,000 feet, from British Columbia. 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 White Lake stands on

White Lake’s center stands about 1,290 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 1,180 ft to 1,490 ft, a difference of 310 ft: rolling country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Ninemile Hill, about 1,600 ft, 5 miles north.

Under the town center the state geologic map shows Wolf River batholith; Wolf River Granite, from the Mesoproterozoic, 1 to 1.6 billion years old.

THE WATER

Where White Lake’s rain goes

A raindrop that lands in White Lake reaches Lake Michigan by way of Spring Creek, the Wolf River and the Fox River: about 230 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
White Lake≈ 230 mi · Lake Michigan
FROM THE CENTER OF WHITE LAKE ≈ 230 mi to Lake Michigan and the St. Lawrence Spring Creek → Wolf River → Fox River

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

140 miles of the trip are on the Wolf River.

Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of White Lake; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
