About the tides at Fly Creek

Tides at Mobile Bay are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. The mean range is small, about 1.7 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on Friday, with a range of 2.4 ft. Neap tides follow on October 9, when the range shrinks to 0.4 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Point Clear, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 17 min later. For tidal currents, see Great Point Clear, channel west of.
