About the tides at Palmyra

Palmyra has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at PHILADELPHIA, US Coast Guard Station, Pa.. The range is large, about 5.2 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. That is larger than most New Jersey stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.8 ft. The next spring tides peak on Saturday, with a range of 5.9 ft. Neap tides follow on October 18, when the range shrinks to 4.8 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 6.6 ft on August 3, and the lowest is −0.5 ft on January 25.

Palmyra is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting PHILADELPHIA, US Coast Guard Station, Pa.: highs come about 51 min and lows about 63 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1978 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Tacony-Palmyra Bridge, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 22 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Frankford Range at Tacony Range.

Predictions are based on PHILADELPHIA, US Coast Guard Station, Pa..
