Water temperature in June

Coming to Ocean city end of June and wondering about the water temp. This am in the Baltimore Sun it says:



Ocean City water temp 64



Assateague Island 75



wow big difference for being close to each other



The local news this am said Ocean City Tide temp 58



also looking at tide charts for June they very from site to site



is this normal?



Thank you for your time and consideration

Water temperature in June


Average water temperatures for OC for June are 60 for the first half of the month, 65 for the second half.

I suspect Assateague is a typo. OC used to be connected to Assateague, they%26#39;re now only separated by 1/4th of a mile. One or two degrees different, maybe. 11? No way.

either way, it%26#39;ll be quite cool in june. water temps are warmest in september %26amp; october.




I agree with Tubman. That Assateague number has to be a misprint and I don%26#39;t think the OC temp is correct either. The Baltimore Sun is a piece of trash anyway, what%26#39;ya reading that for? ha! ha!





Anyway, because of the relatively cool Spring we have been experiencing, ocean water temps seem to be taking their good old time reaching a comfortable level (mid to upper 60%26#39;s) this season. By August and early September the ocean will have reached it%26#39;s highest temps of the season which might start to creep into the low 70%26#39;s.
