About the tides at Millville
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The pattern follows the reference station at Lewes, Ft. Miles. The average range is about 4.7 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 5.9 ft. Neap tides follow on October 19, when the range shrinks to 3.5 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 6.8 ft on August 3, and the lowest is −1.3 ft on January 23.
Millville is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Lewes, Ft. Miles: highs come about 213 min and lows about 216 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1978 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Menantico Creek entrance, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 27 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Mauricetown Bridge, Maurice River.
Predictions are based on Lewes, Ft. Miles.
