About the tides at Mobile Point (Fort Morgan)

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 Mobile State Docks, Mobile River. The mean range is small, about 1.1 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on October 29, with a range of 2.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Thursday, when the range shrinks to 0.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.9 ft on June 6, and the lowest is −0.9 ft on January 21.

Mobile Point (Fort Morgan) is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Mobile State Docks, Mobile River: highs come about 106 min and lows about 92 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Dauphin Island, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Mobile Bay Entrance, off Mobile Point.

Predictions are based on Mobile State Docks, Mobile River.
