About the tides at Massacre Bay
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. Water here rises and falls only about 1.9 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 5.0 ft on December 23 and bottom out at −1.6 ft on June 6.
Predictions for Massacre Bay come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1943 to 1975 to set up these predictions.
