About the tides at Long Island
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.8 ft. The range is large, about 9.1 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 9.9 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 11.3 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 8.5 ft.
Long Island is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Portland: highs come about 1 min and lows about 1 min earlier than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1979 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Vaill Island, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min later. For tidal currents, see Hussey Sound, Cow Island.
Predictions are based on Portland.
