About the tides at Trenton

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.7 ft. The range is large, about 8.2 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. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 8.7 ft. The next spring tides peak on Saturday, with a range of 9.3 ft. Neap tides follow on October 19, when the range shrinks to 6.8 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 9.8 ft on May 19, and the lowest is −0.9 ft on January 23.

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 1977 to 1992 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Newbold, 4 mi away. For tidal currents, see Newbold Island north of, Main Channel.
