About the tides at St. Georges
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.5 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Reedy Point, C&d Canal. The average range is about 4.1 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 5.0 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 3.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.5 ft on August 2, and the lowest is −0.8 ft on January 24.
St. Georges is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Reedy Point, C&d Canal: highs come about 16 min and lows about 17 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Delaware City Branch Channel bridge, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 16 min later. For tidal currents, see St. George Bridge, 0.1 n.mi. Ene of.
Predictions are based on Reedy Point, C&d Canal.
