About the tides at Cordova

Cordova has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. Cordova sees a mean range of about 10.2 ft. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 12.6 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 17.8 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 6.8 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 15.9 ft on November 25 and bottom out at −3.7 ft on July 5.

A live NOAA gauge measures the water here, and predictions are calculated from this station's own records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1949. The nearest other station is Shag Rock, 10 mi away, where high tide comes about 11 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Old Log Boom.
