About the tides at Cuttyhunk
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.4 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Newport, Narragansett Bay. The average range is about 3.4 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 4.8 ft on September 2, and the lowest is −0.8 ft on January 23.
Cuttyhunk is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Newport, Narragansett Bay: highs come about 80 min and lows about 75 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1976 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Penikese Island, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 17 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Canapitsit Channel.
Predictions are based on Newport, Narragansett Bay.
