About the tides at Southold

Southold 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 NEW LONDON, State Pier. The average range is about 2.2 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 11, with a range of 2.9 ft. Neap tides follow on Saturday, when the range shrinks to 2.2 ft.

Southold is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting NEW LONDON, State Pier: highs come about 104 min and lows about 93 min later than there. The nearest other station is Greenport, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 20 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Jennings Point, 0.2 mile NNW of.

Predictions are based on NEW LONDON, State Pier.
