About the tides at Port Newark Terminal
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.7 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at The Battery, New York Harbor. The average range is about 4.9 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 7.1 ft. Neap tides follow tomorrow, when the range shrinks to 3.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.0 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −1.5 ft on January 23.
Port Newark Terminal is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting The Battery, New York Harbor: highs come about 3 min and lows about 21 min later than there. The nearest other station is Port Elizabeth, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 9 min later. For tidal currents, see Middle Reach, Newark Bay.
Predictions are based on The Battery, New York Harbor.
