About the tides at Lonesome Bayou (Thomasin)

Most days here have a single high and a single low. Around neap tides the pattern can blur into small double tides. The pattern follows the reference station at South Pass. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.0 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 0.3 ft, on October 23. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.0 ft on October 29 and bottom out at −1.0 ft on January 20.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at South Pass, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is North Pass, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min later.

Predictions are based on South Pass.
