About the tides at Constable Hook
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Constable Hook Upper Bay, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at The Battery, New York Harbor. 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 6.4 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 3.6 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 6.3 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −1.4 ft on January 23.
Constable Hook is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting The Battery, New York Harbor: highs come about 18 min and lows about 8 min earlier than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1980 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is St. George, 1 mi away. For tidal currents, see Constable Hook Approach.
Predictions are based on The Battery, New York Harbor.
