About the tides at Mispillion River entrance

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 average range is about 4.5 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 5.8 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 4.7 ft.

Mispillion River entrance is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Murderkill River entrance, 9 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min later. For tidal currents, see Mispillion River mouth.
