Daily observations on the Hudson River as it passes through New York City. The section of the Hudson which passes through New York is historically known as the North River, called this by the Dutch to distinguish it from the Delaware River, which they knew as the South River. This stretch of the Hudson is still often referred to as the North River by local mariners today. All photos by Daniel Katzive unless otherwise attributed. Twitter @dannykatman

Windy and clear

Windy conditions persisted Tuesday, and a number of tugs with empty barges were laid up in North River anchorages in the morning before heading out in the afternoon.

Mister Jim came through with an empty hopper on the way down from Coeymans, passing an anchored Rubia and a Vane Brothers tug pushing upriver with a loaded barge.

An other V22 Osprey flew up the river, originating at Patuxent Naval Air Station in Maryland. A Marine King Stallion helicopter also made a loop up the river.
