About the tides at Abbots Meadow
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Abbots Meadow, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. On a typical day the water moves about 4.8 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 5.7 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 4.6 ft, on Sunday.
Abbots Meadow is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is 2.5 n.mi. above entrance, 0.7 mi away, where high tide comes about 7 min later. For tidal currents, see Alloway Creek ent., 0.2 mile above.
