About the tides at Wading River (town)

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Wading River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock. On a typical day the water moves about 3.0 ft between high and low. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.4 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.8 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 2.6 ft, on Sunday.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1978 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is New Gretna, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 56 min earlier.

Predictions are based on Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock.
