About the tides at 8 miles above mouth
8 miles above mouth has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. With a mean range of about 6.9 ft, the shoreline here changes a lot between high and low water. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.6 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 7.3 ft, on Sunday.
8 miles above mouth is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Jointer Island, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Turtle River, off Andrews Island.
