About the tides at Barrow Offshore
Barrow Offshore has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. Water here rises and falls only about 0.5 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 0.8 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 0.2 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.3 ft on August 2 and bottom out at −0.4 ft on April 9.
Predictions for Barrow Offshore come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 2008 to 2010 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Point Barrow, 8 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min later.
