Snows Cut is a public boat ramp in New Hanover County, North Carolina, on Carolina Beach Yacht Basin. From here SeaStatus scores 2 waters: Coastal waters from Surf City to Cape Fear NC out 20 nm (Area 4 of 7) and Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Segment 8 of 10).
The main water here is Coastal waters from Surf City to Cape Fear NC out 20 nm (Area 4 of 7). 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 41038, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8658559, Wilmington Beach, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 0.8 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
