About the tides at Hillsboro

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.5 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. On a typical day the water moves about 2.3 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.6 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.0 ft, comes on October 29, and the smallest, 1.9 ft, on Thursday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.0 ft on November 25 and bottom out at −0.1 ft on November 26.

Predictions for Hillsboro come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 2005 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Dover Bridge, 11 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 56 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Dover Bridge.
