About the tides at Harborton

Harborton has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. The mean range is small, about 1.8 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.0 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 2.6 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 1.1 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.6 ft on September 30, and the lowest is −0.7 ft on January 23.

Harborton is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel: highs come about 191 min and lows about 213 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Onancock, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 44 min later. For tidal currents, see Watts Island, 4 miles south of.

Predictions are based on Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel.
