About the tides at Jacksonville
Jacksonville has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. Water here rises and falls only about 1.7 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.1 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 1.7 ft, on Sunday.
Predictions for Jacksonville come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Little Pottsburg Creek, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Jacksonville, off Washington St.
