About the tides at Haddam
Haddam has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The average range is about 2.4 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Connecticut stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 11, with a range of 3.2 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 2.6 ft.
Haddam is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting NEW LONDON, State Pier: highs come about 168 min and lows about 188 min later than there. The nearest other station is Higganum Creek, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 20 min later. For tidal currents, see Higganum Creek, 0.5 mile ESE of.
Predictions are based on NEW LONDON, State Pier.
