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 average range is about 2.6 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 Saturday, with a range of 5.1 ft. Neap tides follow on October 10, when the range shrinks to 0.8 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 Sweeper Cove, Kuluk Bay, Adak Island: 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 Sweeper Cove, Kuluk Bay, Adak Island.
