About the tides at Corpus Christi
Corpus Christi usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. The mean range is small, about 1.3 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is larger than most Texas stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.6 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 29, with a range of 2.7 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 0.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.6 ft on October 29, and the lowest is −1.2 ft on January 21.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. It was established in 1983. The nearest other station is Packery Channel, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 1 m later.
