About the tides at Armitage Island
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 average range is about 4.9 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Washington stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 7.8 ft. The next spring tides peak on Friday, with a range of 9.1 ft. Neap tides follow on October 12, when the range shrinks to 2.1 ft.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1972 to 2000 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Strawberry Bay, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min later. For tidal currents, see Thatcher Pass.
