About the tides at Key West, south side, White Street Pier
Key West, south side, White Street Pier has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Key West. The mean range is small, about 1.4 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.9 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 26, with a range of 2.6 ft. Neap tides follow on Thursday, when the range shrinks to 1.1 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.7 ft on October 28, and the lowest is −0.6 ft on January 21.
Key West, south side, White Street Pier is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Key West: highs come about 53 min and lows about 31 min earlier than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1974 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Key West, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 53 min later. For tidal currents, see Ft. Taylor, 0.6 mile N of.
Predictions are based on Key West.
