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 1.0 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 1.7 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 0.9 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Fort McHenry Marsh, 0.5 mi away. For tidal currents, see Fort McHenry, NW Harbor entrance.
