About the tides at Foulweather Bluff

Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 12.9 ft, comes on October 29, and the smallest, 4.4 ft, on October 27. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 11.7 ft on December 25 and bottom out at −3.5 ft on July 4.
Predictions for Foulweather Bluff come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1977 to 2012 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Port Ludlow, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Hood Canal Entrance, Foulweather Bluff.
