About the tides at Rhode River (County Wharf)

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 0.9 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Maryland stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.5 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 0.6 ft, on Sunday.

Rhode River (County Wharf) is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Galesville, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 28 min later. For tidal currents, see Cheston Point, south of, West River.
