A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.3 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 1.4 ft, on October 8.

Predictions for Matlacha Pass (bascule bridge) come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only.
