About the tides at Pawtuxet
Pawtuxet has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The average range is about 4.3 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.8 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 5.5 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 3.9 ft.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here in 1994 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Bay Spring, 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Nayatt Point, WNW of.
