About the tides at Gaskins Point

Gaskins Point has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The mean range is small, about 1.7 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 2.0 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 28, with a range of 2.4 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 1.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.4 ft on November 25, and the lowest is −0.1 ft on December 25.

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 1972 to 2007 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Rappahannock Light, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 15 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Nassawadox Point, 1.9 n.mi. NW of.
