About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Salem from the REEDY POINT station: high tides about 0.76× the height, 49 min later; low tides about 0.76× the height, 41 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.
