About Wilmette Harbor to Northerly Island IL

Wilmette Harbor to Northerly Island IL is a nearshore coastal water reached from boat ramps in Illinois. SeaStatus lists 10 ramps that launch into it, the closest being Church Street Power Boat Ramp at 0.0 mi.

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 45198, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 9087044.
