Rodgers A. Smith Landing is a public boat ramp in York County, Virginia, on Poquoson River. From here SeaStatus scores 5 waters: James River from Jamestown to the James River Bridge, Chesapeake Bay from New Point Comfort to Little Creek VA (Area 5 of 11), James River from JRB to HRBT, Including the Elizabeth River, York River and Poquoson River.
The main water here is Poquoson 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 44072, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8638407, Menchville, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 0.6 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
