About the tides at Fourchu

Fourchu has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The average range is about 0.96 m. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak on Friday, with a range of 1.23 m. Neap tides follow on October 16, when the range shrinks to 0.60 m.

This is a prediction station. CHS calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Louisbourg, 31 km away, where high tide comes about 11 min later. Canadian tide heights use chart datum, a level set low on purpose. Negative heights are uncommon.
