About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Weir Creek bridge, Dividing Creek from the LEWES (BREAKWATER HARBOR) station: high tides about 0.71× the height, 98 min later; low tides about 0.71× the height, 153 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.
