About the tides at Laska Cove
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 pattern follows the reference station at Adak Island, Sweeper Cove. The average range is about 2.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on October 29, with a range of 5.6 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 1.6 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.4 ft on December 23, and the lowest is −1.7 ft on June 6.
Laska Cove is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Adak Island, Sweeper Cove: highs come about 4 min earlier and lows about 7 min later than there. The nearest other station is Adak Bight, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 20 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Kagalaska Strait, off Galas Point.
Predictions are based on Adak Island, Sweeper Cove.
