About the tides at North Brother Island
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at North Brother Island, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Kings Point, Long Island Sound. The range is large, about 6.5 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. That is larger than most New York stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 9.3 ft. Neap tides follow tomorrow, when the range shrinks to 4.1 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 8.7 ft on September 30, and the lowest is −1.9 ft on January 23.
North Brother Island is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Kings Point, Long Island Sound: highs come about 18 min and lows about 18 min later than there. The nearest other station is Port Morris (Stony Point), 0.5 mi away. For tidal currents, see South Brother Island, NW of.
Predictions are based on Kings Point, Long Island Sound.
