About the tides at Mobbly Bayou
Mobbly Bayou has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at St. Petersburg, Tampa Bay. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.8 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.8 ft, comes on Wednesday, and the smallest, 1.2 ft, on October 22. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.1 ft on July 4 and bottom out at −0.5 ft on January 21.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at St. Petersburg, Tampa Bay, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1990 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Safety Harbor, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 2 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Courtney Campbell Parkway.
Predictions are based on St. Petersburg, Tampa Bay.
