About the tides at Keysfield
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.2 ft. The pattern follows the reference station at CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf). The mean range is small, about 0.9 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most South Carolina stations on this site. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 1.7 ft. Neap tides follow on Sunday, when the range shrinks to 1.1 ft.
Keysfield is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf): highs come about 369 min and lows about 380 min later than there. The nearest other station is Pitch Landing, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 16 m later.
Predictions are based on CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf).
