About the tides at Apalachicola River (A&N RR bridge)
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The mean range is small, about 0.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 1.8 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 1.0 ft.
Apalachicola River (A&N RR bridge) is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Huckleberry Landing, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 21 m later.
