About the tides at Harlem River
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Randalls Island, Harlem River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. On a typical day the water moves about 4.6 ft between high and low. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.0 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 6.6 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 3.1 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 6.0 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −1.0 ft on January 23.
Predictions for Harlem River come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1981 to 2014 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Hell Gate, 1.0 mi away, where high tide comes about 49 min later. For tidal currents, see Willis Ave. Bridge, 0.1 mile NW of.
