About the tides at Joseph Harbor

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. Water here rises and falls only about 1.5 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is larger than most Louisiana stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.2 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.6 ft, comes on Friday, and the smallest, 1.6 ft, on October 8.

Predictions for Joseph Harbor come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 2019 to 2020 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Catfish Point, 16 mi away, where high tide comes about 3 h 28 m later.
