About the tides at Conimicut Light

Conimicut Light has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The average range is about 4.2 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.6 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 5.3 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 3.8 ft.

Conimicut Light is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1999. The nearest other station is Bay Spring, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min later. For tidal currents, see Nayatt Point, WNW of.
