Tides in Arden on the Severn
Today's high and low tides
- ▼ Low tide 2:47 am 0.4 ft
- ▲ High tide 7:38 am 0.9 ft · coef. 85
- ▼ Low tide 1:30 pm 0.1 ft
- ▲ Next high tide 8:26 pm 1.5 ft · coef. 83
↑ Rising The tide is rising. 2 h 27 min to high tide at 8:26 pm.
Tide coefficient 85 for the 7:38 am high tide and 83 for the 8:26 pm high tide. Average coefficient. The water rises and falls 1.4 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on June 15 (1.6 ft) and the lowest, on February 1 (-0.5 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero of US nautical charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. MLLW
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 9 to 11 (coefficient 86, 1.1 ft range). The smallest, from October 18 to 19 (coefficient 44, 0.7 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Tides from the Brewer Point station (NOAA), 3.6 mi from Arden on the Severn. Times and heights are its predictions. It is a NOAA subordinate station: its times and heights come from the Baltimore reference station with the official corrections.

The sea at Arden on the Severn
Sea stateSea state: calm (rippled)
The waves you may find
- Most commonMost common0.1 ft
- Significant0.3 ft
- Highest expectedHighest0.6 ft
One wave in seven is higher than the significant height, and about 3 times a day one reaches 0.6 ft. Before heading out, expect waves of up to 0.6 ft.
Wind on the coast and offshore
Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces east and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.
Wave height, next 7 daysWaves, next 7 days
Waves stay much the same all week. The biggest waves arrive on Saturday 31: 1.3 ft with a period of 2 s, from the north (smooth).

Your diving day at a glance
The best window, 11:50 am to 2:50 pm, combines slack water at low tide, small waves, light wind, weak current and the sun high. Also good from 7:30 am to 8:30 am, with slack water at high tide, small waves, light wind and weak current.
Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.
Never dive alone and check with the local dive shop: this rating is a guide, not a substitute for a professional.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,429 mi away and looks 32′ 47″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 1:41–3:41 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity

- 10:06–11:06 am Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:17–8:17 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity
According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.

For fishing, swimming and diving
- Shore fishing. Very shallow: the water doesn't reach 16 ft within 2.6 mi. Cast far from the beach, ideally around high tide.
- Swimming. A very gentle way in with plenty of shallow water, good for kids. At low tide the water can be far out.
- Diving. Shallow: the water doesn't reach 33 ft within 2.6 mi. For deeper dives, take a boat farther out.
Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. There is land ahead (an island, a headland or the far shore) 2.6 mi out. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
