About the tides at Dog Island, west end

Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.3 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at Apalachicola, Apalachicola River. The mean range is small, about 1.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on October 29, with a range of 4.1 ft. Neap tides follow on Thursday, when the range shrinks to 1.9 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.9 ft on October 1, and the lowest is −1.6 ft on January 21.

Dog Island, west end is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Apalachicola, Apalachicola River: highs come about 113 min and lows about 158 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is St. George Island, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 12 m later.

Predictions are based on Apalachicola, Apalachicola River.
