How to Use This Cyclone, Pennsylvania Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cyclone, Pennsylvania. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Pennsylvania or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Cyclone.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Cyclone, Pennsylvania

Cyclone is a locality in McKean County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 280. The population density is 5.0 people per km². Cyclone is located at 41.8323°N, 78.5859°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 16726, 15824.

Cyclone occupies a landscape defined by the persistent, rhythmic cutting of Kinzua Creek, which carves a narrow, serpentine path through the terrain. It lies 28.0 miles north of Saint Marys, PA (from Saint Marys, PA: bearing 357°T), and is situated 1.7 miles west-northwest of McKean. The earth here rises in dense, verdant folds, characterized by the deep, shadowed depressions of McQuen Hollow and the dense canopy of distant, ancient woodlands that seem to hold the morning mist in suspension. Light at dusk filters through the heavy timber, casting long, bruised purples across the ground, while the air maintains a crisp, metallic edge that speaks of the high, interior plateaus. Beyond the immediate reach of the creek, the land stretches out into a quiet, rugged topography where the horizon remains defined by the distant silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains, a silent, jagged reminder of the continental scale that dwarfs the small, human-built clearings below.

Cyclone grew from the necessity of the land, its history tied to the extraction of resources that once hummed with the mechanical pulse of timber and oil industry. Though the heavy machinery has largely fallen silent, the imprint of that industrious past lingers in the weathered architecture and the deliberate, unforced pace of life among the residents. Those seeking recreation often look toward the nearby Hilltop Community Park for a reprieve, or venture toward the quiet, glassy surface of Reservoir Number Five to observe the way the sky reflects in the still, dark water. The economy today is a modest affair, favoring the slow reclamation of the woods and the quiet maintenance of a life lived in the shadow of the great, forested ridges, where the seasons turn with a visible, heavy gravity.

About This Cyclone Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cyclone, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.832285, -78.585858. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Cyclone includes the ZIP code (16726, 15824), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of McKean County (Smethport), and school district assignment.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
