About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Chincoteague Island, Blake Cove from the OCEAN CITY (FISHING PIER) station: high tides about 0.28× the height, 111 min later; low tides about 0.56× the height, 152 min later.
Barrier islands, big bays, and river tides: Chesapeake and Delaware bays carry the tide deep inland, and a nor'easter can hold water in, or blow it out, for days at a time.
