About the tides at Northbury

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. On a typical day the water moves about 3.0 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Virginia stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.2 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.8 ft, on Tuesday.

Northbury is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Lester Manor, 8 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 8 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Northbury, Pamunkey River.
