About the tides at Lockheed Shipyard

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 SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay. The range is large, about 7.7 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 11.4 ft. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 12.5 ft. Neap tides follow on October 11, when the range shrinks to 6.6 ft.

Lockheed Shipyard is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay: highs come about 1 min and lows about 1 min earlier than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1975 to 1981 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Seattle (Madison St.), 2 mi away. For tidal currents, see Harbor Island West.

Predictions are based on SEATTLE (Madison St.), Elliott Bay.
