About the tides at Brazos Drawbridge

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 pattern follows the reference station at San Francisco, San Francisco Bay. On a typical day the water moves about 4.8 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 8.6 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 4.2 ft, on October 30. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 8.2 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −1.6 ft on December 24.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at San Francisco, San Francisco Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here from 1978 to 1986 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Edgerley Island, 1 mi away. For tidal currents, see Wilson Point, 3.90 nmi. Nnw of.

Predictions are based on San Francisco, San Francisco Bay.
