About the tides at 0.8 n.mi. above entrance
0.8 n.mi. above entrance has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Reedy Point, C&d Canal. The range is large, about 5.0 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. That is larger than most New Jersey stations on this site. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 6.6 ft on August 3, and the lowest is −0.8 ft on January 24.
0.8 n.mi. above entrance is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Reedy Point, C&d Canal: highs come about 21 min later and lows about 10 min earlier than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1979 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Abbots Meadow, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 23 min later. For tidal currents, see Alloway Creek ent., 0.2 mile above.
Predictions are based on Reedy Point, C&d Canal.
