Supply stress

Port Clinton is a consecutive system with no treatment plant of its own, so its supply risk sits with its regional supplier rather than with the city.

Sewers

Sanitary

The City of Port Clinton operates its own wastewater treatment plant, averaging approximately 2.699 MGD (about 985 million gallons a year) and handling peak flows exceeding 24 MGD during heavy-rain events as required by state and federal standards. Design capacity, treatment processes, receiving stream and any CSO or consent-decree…

Storm

The same city wastewater department is responsible for operating and maintaining the city's storm sewer system alongside the sanitary system. No separate stormwater utility, rate or fee is described.

43% of these days are measurements from a gauge inside 43452 (Port Clinton); the rest are estimated from the nearest gauges around it.

48,644 days of records, 1893-04-01 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.
