About the tides at Lawma

Tides here are mixed. On average the two daily highs differ by 0.3 ft, so check which low is the lower one before you head out. The mean range is small, about 1.1 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 1.6 ft. The next spring tides peak on Tuesday, with a range of 1.6 ft. Neap tides follow on October 22, when the range shrinks to 0.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.2 ft on June 5, and the lowest is −1.2 ft on December 24.

Amerada Pass is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 2005. The nearest other station is Shell Island, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 32 m later.
