About the tides at Williamsburg Bridge

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.6 ft. The average range is about 4.2 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.7 ft. The next spring tides peak on Friday, with a range of 5.0 ft. Neap tides follow on October 18, when the range shrinks to 3.2 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.5 ft on July 4, and the lowest is −1.0 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 1999 to 2000 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Wallabout Bay, 0.5 mi away, where high tide comes about 15 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Corlears Hook.
