About the tides at Colburn Creek

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. Water here rises and falls only about 1.7 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.5 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.7 ft, on Sunday.

Colburn Creek is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Long Point, 0.6 mi away, where high tide comes about 20 min later. For tidal currents, see Big Annemessex River Entrance.
