Hi, I’m Dan! I built this site because I paddle on the Hudson with my family (that’s my 10-year-old son I’m towing through a rainstorm on our way from Cold Spring to Beacon). The site is free. If you find it helpful and want to support it, you can buy me a coffee.

Important note
Tides and currents are predictions, not observations. Wind, waves, runoff, storm surge and other factors can affect actual conditions. Weather is sourced from the National Weather Service. Use your own judgment and paddle at your own risk.
Current from NOAA station ACT3771_1 (Saugerties), under a mile from the launch. Flood and ebb headings are the river’s own axis here. Tide from NOAA station 8518964 at Tivoli, under half a mile from the launch. Both are predictions, baked into this page and good through 31 Dec 2028; values between NOAA’s published points are interpolated. Weather and alerts come live from the National Weather Service grid covering Tivoli. Water temperature comes from NOAA Turkey Point, 1 mile downriver, or NOAA Coxsackie when that gauge is out. Sun and moon are computed rather than fetched, and agree with the US Naval Observatory to within a couple of minutes.
