About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Bay Shore, Watchogue Creek Entrance from the Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock station: high tides about 0.22× the height, 135 min later; low tides about 0.37× the height, 147 min later.
Barrier islands, big bays, and river tides: Chesapeake and Delaware bays carry the tide deep inland, and a nor'easter can hold water in, or blow it out, for days at a time.
