About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Barren Island, Rockaway Inlet from the Sandy Hook, Fort Hancock station: high tides about 1.07× the height, 1 min earlier; low tides about 1.05× the height, 4 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.
