Did you know
  • Upper Sandusky ran the same lime-softening water plant from 1890 until the last decade or so - by the time engineers evaluated it, parts were close to 120 years old and it sat in the river's flood plain.
  • Its replacement runs ultrafiltration plus reverse osmosis, a train more typical of seawater desalination than of a city of under 7,000, chosen to strip more than 90 percent of the organics that drive disinfection…
  • The city still has eight combined sewer overflows discharging to the same Sandusky River it drinks from, and files 4-hour and 7-day public notices each time one runs.
  • Anyone can buy water at the city's bulk station, and filling a swimming pool costs $16.50 per 1,000 gallons plus labor.

84% of these days are measurements from a gauge inside 43351 (Upper Sandusky); the rest are estimated from the nearest gauges around it.

48,835 days of records, 1892-12-01 to 2026-10-28. Source: NOAA NCEI GHCN-Daily, 3,240 gauges in and around Ohio. A day is "gauged" when a gauge standing inside the boundary reported it, and the value is the mean of those gauges. Otherwise it is interpolated by inverse distance from every gauge reporting within 50 miles. Nothing is carried forward, back-filled or smoothed. Against NOAA nClimDiv county monthly precipitation over 136,848 complete county-months (checked 2026-10-31): correlation 0.9515, median absolute difference 0.217 in a month. Built 2026-10-31 from the Cracked Buckeye precipitation archive. Snow is the softer number — snowfall is measured by hand with a ruler, no agency publishes a gridded county snowfall series, and blowing snow defeats every observer.
