About the tides at Riverdale

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Hudson River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at The Battery, New York Harbor. The average range is about 3.7 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 5.4 ft. Neap tides follow tomorrow, when the range shrinks to 2.8 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.3 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −1.1 ft on January 23.

Riverdale is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting The Battery, New York Harbor: highs come about 48 min and lows about 49 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1981 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Spuyten Duyvil Creek ent., 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Riverdale.

Predictions are based on The Battery, New York Harbor.
