About the tides at Harbor River entrance
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Harbor River entrance, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf). On a typical day the water moves about 4.6 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 5.9 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 5.1 ft, on Sunday.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf), with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Buck Hall, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier.
Predictions are based on CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf).
