About the tides at Baltimore

Baltimore has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The mean range is small, about 1.1 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.2 ft on July 4, and the lowest is −0.7 ft on January 22.

Fort McHenry, Patapsco River is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1902. The nearest other station is Fort McHenry Marsh, 0.5 mi away. For tidal currents, see Fort McHenry, NW Harbor entrance.
