About the tides at Graveline Bayou Entrance
Graveline Bayou Entrance usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. The mean range is small, about 1.4 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on Friday, with a range of 2.3 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 0.5 ft.
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 1980 to 1981 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Pascagoula NOAA Lab, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Horn Island, Petit Bois Island, between.
