About the tides at Ford's Terror

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 2.4 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The tide range here is very large, about 11.2 ft on average. Water can come in faster than you can walk across flats. Check the time before you go out. That is larger than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 13.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 15.8 ft on November 25, and the lowest is −2.5 ft on July 5.

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 Upper Endicott Arm, 12 mi away, where high tide comes about 52 min earlier.
