About the tides at Stony Creek

Stony Creek 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 1.1 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.6 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.8 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 0.8 ft, on October 31. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.0 ft on July 4 and bottom out at −0.6 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. NOAA measured the tide here in 1976 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Hawkins Point, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Brewerton Angle.

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