Virginia's Beach is a public boat ramp in Erie County, Pennsylvania, on Lake Erie. From here SeaStatus scores 4 waters: Geneva-on-the-Lake to Conneaut OH, Geneva-on-the-Lake to Conneaut OH beyond 5 nm off shoreline to US-Canadian border, Conneaut OH to Ripley NY and Conneaut OH to Ripley NY beyond 5 nm off shoreline to US-Canadian border (Area 1 of 7).
The main water here is Conneaut OH to Ripley NY. 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 45167, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9063038. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 18.8 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
