About the tides at Buffalo Bluff

Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at St. Johns River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. Water here rises and falls only about 1.0 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.3 ft on October 12 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on June 4.

Predictions for Buffalo Bluff 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 1978 to 2008 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Palatka, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 16 min earlier.
