About the tides at Wanamaker Bridge

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Darby Creek, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River. The range is large, about 5.7 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 6.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.0 ft on August 3, and the lowest is −0.5 ft on January 25.

Wanamaker Bridge is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River: highs come about 46 min and lows about 34 min earlier than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1981 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Norwood City, 0.8 mi away. For tidal currents, see Crab Point, 0.5 mi East of.

Predictions are based on Philadelphia (USCG Sta.), Delaware River.
