About the tides at El Jobean
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The pattern follows the reference station at St. Petersburg, Tampa Bay. The mean range is small, about 1.3 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.0 ft. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 2.3 ft. Neap tides follow on November 20, when the range shrinks to 0.9 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.5 ft on July 4, and the lowest is −0.8 ft on January 21.
El Jobean is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting St. Petersburg, Tampa Bay: highs come about 98 min and lows about 116 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 1981 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Locust Point, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 25 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Gasparilla Pass.
Predictions are based on St. Petersburg, Tampa Bay.
