About the tides at Newport News

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 Sewells Point, Hampton Roads. The average range is about 2.5 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.8 ft on September 30, and the lowest is −0.7 ft on January 23.

Newport News is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sewells Point, Hampton Roads: highs come about 29 min and lows about 28 min later than there. The nearest other station is Huntington Park, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 9 min later. For tidal currents, see 0.15nm Wsw of Pier No.2.

Predictions are based on Sewells Point, Hampton Roads.
