Alford Lake is a public boat ramp in Knox County, Maine, on Alford Lake. From here SeaStatus scores one water: Penobscot Bay (Area 1 of 4).
The main water here is Penobscot Bay (Area 1 of 4). Nearshore water is scored mostly on wind and wave height, with wave steepness and the tidal current counting too. A current running against the wind is treated as worse than either one alone. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 44033. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 10.5 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
