Blue Heron is a public boat ramp in Jackson County, Mississippi, on Simmons Bayou. From here SeaStatus scores 9 waters: Heron Bayou, Ramsey Bayou, Simmons Bayou, Davis Bayou, Halstead Bayou, Mississippi Sound (Area 8 of 14), and 3 more.
The main water here is Simmons Bayou. 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. Tide predictions come from NOAA station 8743081, Hollingsworth Point, Davis Bayou, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 0.5 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
