About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Watch Hill Point from the NEWPORT station: high tides about 0.74× the height, 41 min later; low tides about 0.71× the height, 76 min later.
Rocky shores and the country's biggest northern ranges: Eastport flirts with 20 ft, and the Gulf of Maine funnels weather as much as tide. Harbors here float — or sit in the mud — on the moon's schedule.
