About the tides at Castleton
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.7 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Albany, Hudson River. The average range is about 4.4 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 5.5 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 3.2 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 6.6 ft on April 20, and the lowest is −0.8 ft on August 4.
Castleton is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Albany, Hudson River: highs come about 17 min and lows about 29 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Albany, 8 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min later. For tidal currents, see Castleton-on-Hudson Bridge.
Predictions are based on Albany, Hudson River.
