About Cattaraugus Creek

Cattaraugus Creek is a public boat ramp in Chautauqua County, New York, on Cattaraugus Creek. From here SeaStatus scores 2 waters: Ripley to Buffalo NY extending from 5NM off shoreline to US-Canadian border and Dunkirk to Buffalo NY.

The main water here is Dunkirk to Buffalo NY. 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 45142, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9063028. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 7.3 mi from this ramp.
