About the tides at Ho-Non-Wah Boy Scout Camp
Ho-Non-Wah Boy Scout Camp has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. The pattern follows the reference station at Charleston, Cooper River Entrance. The range is large, about 5.9 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 6.5 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 25, with a range of 7.1 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 4.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 7.8 ft on October 1, and the lowest is −1.6 ft on January 23.
Ho-Non-Wah Boy Scout Camp is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Charleston, Cooper River Entrance: highs come about 49 min and lows about 30 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1982 to 1983 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Leadenwah Creek, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 5 min later. For tidal currents, see North Edisto River entrance.
Predictions are based on Charleston, Cooper River Entrance.
