About the tides at East Bank 1
East Bank 1 usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. Water here rises and falls only about 0.5 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Louisiana stations on this site. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 0.9 ft on October 1 and bottom out at −0.6 ft on January 20.
Predictions for East Bank 1 come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1982 to 2012 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is New Canal USCG station, 15 mi away, where high tide comes about 14 min later.
