About the tides at Bladensburg

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Anacostia River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The average range is about 3.0 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.7 ft on June 6, and the lowest is −0.5 ft on January 24.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1932 to 1996 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Kenilworth Aquatic Garden, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 19 min later. For tidal currents, see South Capitol Street Bridge.
