About the tides at Lower Hall Landing
Tides at Tensaw River are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. The pattern follows the reference station at MOBILE, Mobile River (State Dock). The mean range is small, about 1.2 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on Friday, with a range of 1.9 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 0.2 ft.
Lower Hall Landing is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting MOBILE, Mobile River (State Dock): highs come about 136 min and lows about 185 min later than there. The nearest other station is William Brooks Park, 10 mi away, where high tide comes about 2 h 2 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Tensaw River entrance (bridge).
Predictions are based on MOBILE, Mobile River (State Dock).
