About the tides at Smith Point Bridge
Smith Point Bridge has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The mean range is small, about 1.2 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.5 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 1.5 ft. Neap tides follow on Tuesday, when the range shrinks to 1.2 ft.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1989 to 1991 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Moriches Inlet, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 18 m earlier.
