About the tides at Amityville
Amityville 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 Sandy Hook. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most New York stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.7 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 0.7 ft, on Monday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.7 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −0.3 ft on January 23.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Sandy Hook, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Gilgo Heading, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Fire I. Inlet, 0.5 mi. S of Oak Beach.
Predictions are based on Sandy Hook.
