Megunticook Lake (Route 52) is a public boat ramp in Knox County, Maine, on Megunticook Lake. From here SeaStatus scores 2 waters: Megunticook River and Penobscot Bay (Area 2 of 4).
The main water here is Megunticook 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 44033, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8415490, Rockland, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 2.1 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
