About the tides at Arcadia

Arcadia 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 SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay. Arcadia sees a mean range of about 10.2 ft. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most Washington stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 15.6 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 12.2 ft, on October 9.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Dofflemeyer Point, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Totten Inlet Entrance.

Predictions are based on SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay.
