About the tides at Ewell
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 mean range is small, about 1.5 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 1.8 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.2 ft on September 2, and the lowest is −0.5 ft on January 23.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1997 to 2010 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Holland Island Bar Light, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 23 min later. For tidal currents, see Kedges Strait Buoy '4'.
