About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Poughkeepsie from the NEW YORK (The Battery) station: high tides about 0.68× the height, 274 min later; low tides about 0.68× the height, 286 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.
