About the tides at Thomaston

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Thomaston, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The range is large, about 9.0 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 9.8 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 11.6 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 8.7 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 in 2003 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Rockland, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Rockland Harbor Breakwater.
