About the tides at Nixon Crossroads

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Nixon Crossroads, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. On a typical day the water moves about 4.0 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 5.0 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 4.3 ft, on Sunday.

Nixon Crossroads is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Cherry Grove (inside), 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 19 min earlier.
