About the tides at Roaring Point
Roaring Point has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. The average range is about 2.1 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 3.3 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 1.5 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.3 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −0.8 ft on January 23.
Roaring Point is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel: highs come about 360 min and lows about 395 min later than there. The nearest other station is Great Shoals Light, 4 mi away. For tidal currents, see Roaring Point, Wsw of Nanticoke River.
Predictions are based on Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel.
