About the tides at Cape Cod Canal, RR. bridge

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 3.4 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Massachusetts stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.0 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 10, with a range of 4.8 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 3.6 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1955 to 2000 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Gray Gables, 0.6 mi away, where high tide comes about 32 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Cape Cod Canal, Railroad Bridge, midchannel.
