About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Tinicum National Wildlife Refuge from the PHILADELPHIA, US Coast Guard Station, Pa. station: high tides about 0.91× the height, 22 min earlier; low tides about 0.90× the height, 8 min earlier.
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.
