About the tides at Blount Island Bridge

Blount Island Bridge has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Bar Pilots Dock, St Johns River. The average range is about 3.5 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.8 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 4.8 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −0.9 ft on January 23.

Blount Island Bridge is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Bar Pilots Dock, St Johns River: highs come about 42 min and lows about 65 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1978 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Dame Point, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 16 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Dames Point, 0.23 n.mi. Ese of.

Predictions are based on Bar Pilots Dock, St Johns River.
