About the tides at Liverpool Point
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Md., each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at WASHINGTON, Washington Channel, D.C.. Water here rises and falls only about 1.0 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.4 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 0.7 ft, on Friday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.6 ft on June 5 and bottom out at −0.5 ft on January 24.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at WASHINGTON, Washington Channel, D.C., with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Quantico, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Quantico.
Predictions are based on WASHINGTON, Washington Channel, D.C..
