About the tides at St. Michaels

St. Michaels 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 Baltimore, Fort McHenry, Patapsco River. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.9 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 0.6 ft, on October 20. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.7 ft on July 4 and bottom out at −0.9 ft on January 22.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Baltimore, Fort McHenry, Patapsco River, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is St. Michaels, Miles River, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 43 min later. For tidal currents, see Deepwater Point, Miles River.

Predictions are based on Baltimore, Fort McHenry, Patapsco River.
