What will be the height of the high water at Mount Sinai Harbor on the morning of 26 August 1983?
• Tide Tables for 1983 and how to read daily predictions • Difference between a reference station and a subordinate station like Mount Sinai Harbor • How to interpret the time and height of high water for a specific date and part of the day (morning vs evening)
• Identify which station in the tide tables Mount Sinai Harbor depends on and how the corrections are applied for high water height • Look at the listing for 26 August 1983 and determine how many high waters occur and which one falls in the morning period • Check whether the height given in the subordinate station table is a direct value or needs to be adjusted from the reference station using a factor or correction
• Verify you are using the correct year (1983) table, not a generic example • Confirm which high water on 26 August is the morning high water based on the times given • Make sure you apply any height corrections listed for Mount Sinai Harbor (add, subtract, or multiply) to the reference station’s high water height before matching it to the choices
