About the tides at Dog Island, west end
Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.4 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. 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 today, with a range of 3.5 ft. Neap tides follow on November 19, when the range shrinks to 1.7 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 10 m later.
Predictions are based on Apalachicola, Apalachicola River.
