About the tides at Cross River entrance

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.9 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Portland,casco Bay. The range is large, about 8.8 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak on November 22, with a range of 10.5 ft. Neap tides follow on November 19, when the range shrinks to 7.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 11.6 ft on December 25, and the lowest is −1.8 ft on January 23.

Cross River entrance is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Portland,casco Bay: highs come about 7 min and lows about 4 min later than there. The nearest other station is Back River, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 27 min later. For tidal currents, see Sheepscot River, off Barter Island.

Predictions are based on Portland,casco Bay.
