About the tides at Channel Five, east side, Hawk Channel

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 Key West. Water here rises and falls only about 1.3 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.2 ft, comes on October 26, and the smallest, 1.0 ft, on Thursday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.3 ft on October 28 and bottom out at −0.4 ft on January 21.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Key West, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Channel Five, 0.9 mi away. For tidal currents, see Long Key, drawbridge east of.

Predictions are based on Key West.
