About the tides at Ridgefield Park

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The pattern follows the reference station at The Battery, New York Harbor. The range is large, about 5.5 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. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.8 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −1.7 ft on January 23.

Ridgefield Park is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting The Battery, New York Harbor: highs come about 60 min and lows about 60 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1975 to 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Hackensack, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min later. For tidal currents, see George Washington Bridge.

Predictions are based on The Battery, New York Harbor.
