About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Portsmouth from the PORTLAND station: high tides about 0.86× the height, 22 min later; low tides about 0.86× the height, 17 min later.

Rocky shores and the country's biggest northern ranges: Eastport flirts with 20 ft, and the Gulf of Maine funnels weather as much as tide. Harbors here float — or sit in the mud — on the moon's schedule.
