About the tides at Allanton
Most days here have a single high and a single low. Around neap tides the pattern can blur into small double tides. The pattern follows the reference station at Pensacola, Pensacola Bay. The mean range is small, about 1.3 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.5 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 30, with a range of 2.3 ft. Neap tides follow on Thursday, when the range shrinks to 0.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.3 ft on October 3, and the lowest is −1.1 ft on January 21.
Allanton is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Pensacola, Pensacola Bay: highs come about 16 min later and lows about 61 min earlier than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1991 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Farmdale, 1.0 mi away. For tidal currents, see Paper Mill.
Predictions are based on Pensacola, Pensacola Bay.
