About the tides at Sharptown

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.2 ft. 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 today, with a range of 2.6 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 1.9 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 Vienna, 7 mi away, where high tide comes about 34 min earlier.
