About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Hollidays Point (Kings Highway bridge) from the HAMPTON ROADS (Sewells Point) station: high tides about 1.25× the height, 56 min later; low tides about 1.67× the height, 63 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.
