About the tides at Crandall
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at St. Marys River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. On a typical day the water moves about 4.8 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.3 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 6.7 ft on October 27 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on January 23.
Predictions for Crandall come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1978 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Roses Bluff, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Range A2, Lb 29, Cumberland Sound.
