About the tides at Alameda Naval Air Station

Alameda Naval Air Station has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at San Francisco, San Francisco Bay. The average range is about 4.6 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 6.4 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 8.5 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 1.8 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 8.0 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −1.8 ft on December 24.

Alameda Naval Air Station is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting San Francisco, San Francisco Bay: highs come about 24 min and lows about 33 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1994 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Oakland Pier, 0.8 mi away, where high tide comes about 9 min later. For tidal currents, see Oakland Inner Harbor Channel.

Predictions are based on San Francisco, San Francisco Bay.
