Highest and lowest water

The week’s highest predicted tide is 4.1 feet at 6:24 a.m. on Wed, Aug 19. No negative low tides are predicted this week. The lowest water is 0.7 feet at 11:57 a.m. on Mon, Aug 17.

How the range changes

The gap between high and low water narrows as the week goes on, from about 3.3 feet on the first day to about 3.0 feet on the last. Currents generally run weaker as that range closes, and the flats drain less far.

Before you go out

These are predictions, not measurements. Wind, rainfall and barometric pressure all push real water levels away from the forecast, and a persistent onshore wind can hold water well above a predicted low. NOAA publishes observed water levels alongside the predictions at the same station, which is the number to check on the day.

For any warning or advisory, follow the National Weather Service rather than a tide table.
