About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for North Branch from the PHILADELPHIA, US Coast Guard Station, Pa. station: high tides about 0.48× the height, 178 min later; low tides about 0.60× the height, 209 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.
