Where Port Morris (Stony Point) is
Port Morris (Stony Point) sits at 40.8017° N, 73.9067° W on New York Harbor and the Hudson River, at New York, NY, in Bronx County. The station here is a historical NOAA reference station: a gauge measured the tide at this spot from 1981 until 2001, and NOAA still publishes harmonic predictions from that record. There is no live reading here today. The closest gauge measuring live water level is Kings Point (NOAA 8516945), 7.4 mi away, and the tide here runs on nearly the same clock. The nearest weather station is New York, La Guardia Airport, an airport reporting wind, visibility and sky cover, but no water temperature, 2.1 mi away.
The tide at Port Morris (Stony Point)
Port Morris (Stony Point) has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows a day of about the same size, roughly 12 hours 25 minutes apart. This month's predictions average 1.9 high tides a day here. The mean range from lower low to higher high is 6.8 ft, and 6.2 ft between the average high and the average low, a large tide. On an average day the higher high tops the lower high by 0.3 ft and the lower low sits 0.3 ft below the other low. For the water around it: Harbor tides are semidiurnal, two highs a day near 4 to 5 ft, and the tide runs all the way up the Hudson to Troy.
About this station
- High tide reaches Port Morris (Stony Point) about 4.2 hours after the moon passes overhead. That lag is local, which is why high water does not line up with the moon.
- Highest water on record: 9.1 ft on Mar 7, 2001.
- Lowest on record: -3.0 ft on Dec 13, 2000.
Datum and source
Heights on this page are feet above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero NOAA's nautical charts use for soundings. A predicted 0.0 ft low is the average of the lower low each day; a minus tide is water below chart datum, and a 2 ft high means 2 ft more water than the chart shows. NOAA fixes MLLW at Port Morris (Stony Point) from the 1983-2001 National Tidal Datum Epoch; mean higher high water is 6.9 ft above it and mean sea level 3.4 ft. The land survey datum NAVD88, the zero on topographic maps and flood maps, is 3.5 ft above MLLW here, so a water level on this page converts to NAVD88 by subtracting that amount. These datums are controlled from NOAA's Kings Point, NY gauge. Source: NOAA CO-OPS station 8518639, established 1981, gauge removed 2001. The tide times and heights are NOAA's official harmonic predictions for this station; TidalMap republishes them daily and does not alter them.
