About the tides at Elk River Railroad Bridge

Elk River Railroad Bridge has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at North Spit, Humboldt Bay. On a typical day the water moves about 4.0 ft between high and low. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 5.6 ft, comes on November 22, and the smallest, 2.6 ft, on Monday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 6.3 ft on December 24 and bottom out at −0.7 ft on June 6.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at North Spit, Humboldt Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Humboldt Bay (North Spit), 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 19 min earlier. For tidal currents, see North Bay Channel, Chevron Pier.

Predictions are based on North Spit, Humboldt Bay.
