About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Cliffs Point from the Baltimore, Fort McHenry station: high tides about 1.32× the height, 12 min later; low tides about 1.50× the height, 2 min earlier.

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.
