About the tides at Cushman
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The range is large, about 5.7 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 7.4 ft. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 8.6 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 3.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 9.3 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −1.9 ft on November 25.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1974 to 2018 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Florence, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Heceta Head.
