About the tides at Clouter Creek, south entrance

Clouter Creek, south entrance has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf). The range is large, about 5.3 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.9 ft. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 6.5 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 5.6 ft.

Clouter Creek, south entrance is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf): highs come about 25 min and lows about 19 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1978 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Clouter Creek, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 20 min later. For tidal currents, see Daniel Island Bend.

Predictions are based on CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf).
