Data from the Tidewatch network show that peak water levels in lower Chesapeake Bay during "Superstorm Sandy" were about a half a foot lower than experienced during the passage of Hurricane Irene (August 2011), Hurricane Isabel (September 2003), or “Nor’Ida” (November 2009). The most notable aspect of the storm was its duration, with elevated water levels persisting through 4 successive high-tide cycles, from the evening high tide on Saturday, October 27th through the morning high tide on Monday, October 29th.
