Sunset Creek is a boat ramp in Hampton city, Virginia, on Sunset Creek. From here SeaStatus scores 12 waters: Brights Creek, Hampton River, Herberts Creek, Newmarket Creek, Southwest Branch Back River, Sunset Creek, and 6 more.
The main water here is James River from JRB to HRBT, Including the Elizabeth 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 8638288, Old Point Comfort, the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 5.8 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
