Gunpowder Falls State Park is a public boat ramp in Baltimore County, Maryland, on Gunpowder River. From here SeaStatus scores 3 waters: Bird River, Chesapeake Bay north of Pooles Island MD and Chesapeake Bay from Pooles Island to Sandy Point MD.
The main water here is Chesapeake Bay from Pooles Island to Sandy Point MD. Bays are scored mostly on wind. Wave height counts for less than on open water, and comfort (temperature and chance of rain) counts for more. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 44080, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8574459, Pond Point, Bush River, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 11.9 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
