About the tides at Cedar Swamp Creek
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.6 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at Atlantic City, Atlantic Ocean. The average range is about 3.0 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most New Jersey stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.5 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 4.5 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 1.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 4.4 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −1.7 ft on January 23.
Cedar Swamp Creek is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Atlantic City, Atlantic Ocean: highs come about 194 min and lows about 183 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1978 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Tuckahoe, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 11 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Corson's Inlet Entrance.
Predictions are based on Atlantic City, Atlantic Ocean.
