Amesbury Town Landing is a public boat ramp in Essex County, Massachusetts, on Merrimack River. From here SeaStatus scores 9 waters: Artichoke River, Back River, Indian River, Powwow River, Powwow River, Merrimack River (Segment 3 of 6), and 3 more.
The main water here is Powwow River. Rivers are scored mostly on wind and current. Wave height is not part of the score, because a river has no real sea state; visibility and comfort make up the rest. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 44074, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8440273, Salisbury Point, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 2.8 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
