About the tides at Davis Slough
Davis Slough has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Oregon Inlet Marina, Pamlico Sound. The mean range is small, about 0.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most North Carolina stations on this site. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.3 ft on September 29, and the lowest is −0.1 ft on January 23.
Davis Slough is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Oregon Inlet Marina, Pamlico Sound: highs come about 9 min later and lows about 1 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Oregon Inlet Channel, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 18 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Coast Guard Tower, southwest of.
Predictions are based on Oregon Inlet Marina, Pamlico Sound.
