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. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 7.5 ft. Neap tides follow on Saturday, when the range shrinks to 1.7 ft. 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.
