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 2.3 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Maryland stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.1 ft on September 3, and the lowest is −0.4 ft on January 22.
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 45 min earlier.
