About the tides at Whitestone

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.6 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Kings Point, Long Island Sound. With a mean range of about 7.1 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. That is larger than most New York stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 9.9 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 4.7 ft, on Sunday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 9.4 ft on September 30 and bottom out at −1.7 ft on January 23.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Kings Point, Long Island Sound, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here in 1981 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Throgs Neck, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 9 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Bronx-Whitestone Bridge, East of.

Predictions are based on Kings Point, Long Island Sound.
