I’m noticing that the Tide data is completely inaccurate for the Atlantic Ocean area where I use Windy. Seaside Heights NJ (ocean) is one area where it’s wrong and off by many hours. Island Beach State Park is another. Seemed to work fine last year.

RE: Tide data inaccurate
@idefix37 thanks for your help. Your screenshots look accurate and the same as what I use for reference from NOAA Tide Predictions (Seaside Heights - https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/noaatidepredictions.html?id=8533071&units=standard&bdate=20240429&edate=20240430&timezone=LST/LDT&clock=12hour&datum=MLLW&interval=hilo&action=dailychart).
But for some odd reason, the data that I'm seeing in Windy is very different. Here are screenshot for 4/29/24. Windy is saying 4:04 AM High Tide, 11:01 AM Low Tide, while NOAA is saying 5:54 AM Low Tide (accurate), 11:59 AM High Tide (accurate).

RE: Tide data inaccurate
@idefix37 here's what I'm seeing this morning in Windy. Very strange...I used Windy to monitor the tides throughout last year and I don't recall seeing this discrepancy. If it helps, I was fishing in that area off the surf In Seaside Heights this past weekend on 4/27-4/28 and the NOAA data (and https://www.worldtides.info/) was accurate.
4/29 - Windy for Seaside Heights: 4:04 AM High, 11:01 AM Low, 4:47 PM High
4/29 - NOAA for Seaside Heights: 5:54 AM Low, 11:59 AM High, 5:39 PM Low -
RE: Tide data inaccurate
Here's also a screenshot using a marker in Windy that is slightly off the coast of Seaside Heights NJ. Tides are different and not accurate.
3:10 AM High, 10:09 AM Low in Windy
Compared to NOAA Seaside Heights (5:54 AM Low , 11:59 AM High) -
