About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Old Frenchtown Wharf from the Baltimore, Fort McHenry station: high tides about 2.06× the height, 193 min later; low tides about 2.27× the height, 180 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.
