About the tides at Batiscan

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 0.63 m. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Quebec stations on this site. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 0.84 m. Neap tides follow on October 20, when the range shrinks to 0.51 m.

Batiscan is a CHS station with a live water level gauge. Predictions come from the station's own tidal analysis. It was established in 1913. The nearest other station is Champlain, 9.8 km away, where high tide comes about 33 min later. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
