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. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 2.3 ft. Neap tides follow on Tuesday, when the range shrinks to 1.8 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 Rappahannock Light, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Nassawadox Point, 1.9 n.mi. NW of.
