About the tides at Beaverdam Creek entrance
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.0 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook. Water here rises and falls only about 0.3 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most New Jersey stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 0.6 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 0.5 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, −0.1 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 0.4 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −0.5 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. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Beaverdam Creek, 0.6 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later. For tidal currents, see Point Pleasant Canal, north bridge.
Predictions are based on Sandy Hook.
