About the tides at Lower Marlboro

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Lower Marlboro, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The mean range is small, about 1.7 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 2.1 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 1.5 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Chesapeake Beach, 9 mi away. For tidal currents, see Lyons Creek Wharf.
