About the tides at Chance

Chance has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. The mean range is small, about 1.8 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.9 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −1.0 ft on January 23.

Chance is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel: highs come about 329 min and lows about 357 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1972 to 1981 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Sharkfin Shoal Light, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min later. For tidal currents, see Deal Is., 0.6 n.mi. W. of, at Bouy '14'.

Predictions are based on Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel.
