TIDAL COEFFICIENT TOWNSEND SOUND

TODAY, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2016

MORNING

AFTERNOON

Tidal coefficient

SEPTEMBER 29, 2016

The tidal coefficient today is 86, a high value and therefore the range of tides and currents will also be high. At noon the tidal coefficient increases to 88. The day ends with a tidal coefficient of 89.

The heights today are 0.1 ft, 4.1 ft, 0.1 ft and 4.3 ft referenced to Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW).

We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Townsend Sound which is of 5.2 ft and a minimum height of -0.7 ft.

2016 tidal coefficients

The following graph shows the progression of the tidal coefficient in the month of September of 2016.These values give us a rough idea of the tidal amplitude in Townsend Sound, forecast in September.

Large coefficients indicate important high and low tides; major currents and movements usually take place on the sea bed. But bear in mind that this tidal amplitude may be greatly affected by the weather.

TIDE TABLE TOWNSEND SOUND

SEPTEMBER, 2016

All the times are generated in local time in New Jersey and the daylight saving time change has also been borne in mind for your convenience, so you don't need to add or subtract anything.

The heights are expressed in feet referenced to Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW). It is the average of the lower low water height of each tidal day observed over the official time segment over which tide observations are taken and reduced to obtain mean value.

You can change the time format and the default unit for height in the

display settings menu

SOLUNAR ACTIVITY TOWNSEND SOUND

TODAY, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2016

SOLUNAR ACTIVITY: VERY HIGH

According to the solunar theory, today is an excellent day for fishing, the fish activity forecast is very high.

The best times of day for fishing are:

MAJOR PERIODS

VERY HIGH ACTIVITY

from 11:50 am to 1:50 pm

Lunar transit (moon up)

MINOR PERIODS

VERY HIGH ACTIVITY

from 5:26 am to 6:26 am

Moonrise

VERY HIGH ACTIVITY

from 6:15 pm to 7:15 pm

Moonset

This period of high activity coincides with sunset; therefore the sun will exercise more influence, resulting in an excellent time for fishing.

SOLUNAR THEORY

The effects of the sun and the moon influence the activity of all living creatures on earth

13:34 pm

6:26 am

5:26 am

1:50 pm

11:50 am

7:15 pm

6:15 pm

The solunar periods indicate the best times of day for fishing in Townsend Sound. The major periods correspond to the lunar transit (passage of the moon over the meridian) and the opposing lunar transit and last approximately 2 hours. The minor periods begin with the rising and setting of the moon and its duration is approximately 1 hour.

When the solunar period coincides with sunrise or sunset, we can expect more activity than initially planned. These peak periods are reflected in green. We additionally point out in the chart the periods of greatest activity during the year with a big blue fish on the period bar + info
