About the tides at Port Jefferson

Port Jefferson has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Seattle, Puget Sound. With a mean range of about 7.0 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 11.5 ft, comes on Tuesday, and the smallest, 6.1 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 12.4 ft on January 25 and bottom out at −3.8 ft on December 24.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Seattle, Puget Sound, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Kingston, 4 mi away. For tidal currents, see Point Jefferson, East of.

Predictions are based on Seattle, Puget Sound.
