About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Bridgeport, Raccoon Creek, N.J. from the PHILADELPHIA, US Coast Guard Station, Pa. station: high tides about 0.91× the height, 71 min earlier; low tides about the same height, 50 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.
