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. The mean range is small, about 1.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most New York stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 25, with a range of 2.5 ft. Neap tides follow on October 20, when the range shrinks to 1.2 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.7 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −0.6 ft on January 23.
Bellmore is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sandy Hook: 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.
