About the tides at Empire
Empire 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 Charleston, Coos Bay. The average range is about 4.7 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 8.3 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −2.2 ft on July 5.
Empire is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Charleston, Coos Bay: highs come about 37 min and lows about 50 min later than there. The nearest other station is Sitka Dock, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 30 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Coos Bay entrance.
Predictions are based on Charleston, Coos Bay.
