About the tides at Chinook

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 1.2 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The pattern follows the reference station at ASTORIA (Tongue Point), Oreg.. The range is large, about 6.1 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 9.6 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 4.6 ft.

Chinook is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting ASTORIA (Tongue Point), Oreg.: highs come about 30 min and lows about 52 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Fort Canby, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Sand Island, SSE of.

Predictions are based on ASTORIA (Tongue Point), Oreg..
