About the tides at Tacony-Palmyra Bridge
Tacony-Palmyra Bridge has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The range is large, about 6.1 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. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 7.4 ft. Neap tides follow on Saturday, when the range shrinks to 6.1 ft.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Palmyra, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 19 min later. For tidal currents, see Frankford Range at Tacony Range.
