About the tides at Bellmore
Bellmore 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, Fort Hancock. The mean range is small, about 1.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 2.6 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 1.9 ft.
Bellmore is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock: highs come about 88 min and lows about 118 min later than there. The nearest other station is Biltmore Shores, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 36 min later. For tidal currents, see Jones Inlet.
Predictions are based on Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock.
