Distribution of 1980 daily highest and lowest tide levels, referenced to NGVD of the daily highest tides, the level exceeded 111 cm (NGVD) (, 102 cm above the 1980 msl); likewise, for 1 percent of the time the daily lowest tides were less than 98 cm below NGVD or 107 cm below msl. 119. The following tabulation identifies times during the winter storm season months of 1980 when spring tides caused by perigee-syzygy alignment of the planets could be expected to produce extreme tidal heights: Date (Mean Epoch) Type of Tide 18 January, 2200 hours EST 16 February, 1600 hours EST 16 March, 1500 hours EST 23 October, 1230 hours EST 21 November. 1100 hours EST Pseudo-perigean spring Perigean spring Perigean spring Proxigean spring Perigean spring 58.
