About the tides at Davis Island
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. Water here rises and falls only about 1.7 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.2 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 1.8 ft, on October 8.
Davis Island is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Tampa, 0.8 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Cut C Channel, marker '21', Hillsborough Bay.
