About the tides at Jesters Island

This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The mean range is small, about 0.8 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Virginia stations on this site. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 0.9 ft. Neap tides follow on October 18, when the range shrinks to 0.6 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.3 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −0.4 ft on January 23.

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 in 1985 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Chincoteague Island, Blake Cove, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 36 min earlier.
