About the tides at Market Street Bridge
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Market St Bridge, Schuylkill R., each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River. With a mean range of about 5.7 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 7.3 ft on August 3 and bottom out at −0.4 ft on January 25.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Philadelphia, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 37 min later. For tidal currents, see Philadelphia, Penns Landing.
Predictions are based on Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River.
