About the tides at Dillard Creek
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at turtle River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Fort Pulaski, Savannah River. The range is large, about 7.7 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 10.3 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −2.1 ft on January 23.
Dillard Creek is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Fort Pulaski, Savannah River: highs come about 92 min and lows about 62 min later than there. The nearest other station is Buffalo River entrance, 1.0 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min later. For tidal currents, see Turtle River, off Allied Chemical Corp.
Predictions are based on Fort Pulaski, Savannah River.
