About the tides at Penrose Avenue Bridge

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Schuylkill R., each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River. The range is large, about 5.5 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.1 ft on August 3, and the lowest is −0.4 ft on January 25.

Penrose Avenue Bridge is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River: highs come about 22 min and lows about 11 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Tinicum National Wildlife Refuge, 8543024, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Girard Point.

Predictions are based on Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River.
