About the tides at Morgans Point

Tides at Barbours Cut are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. The mean range is small, about 1.1 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.3 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 26, with a range of 1.8 ft. Neap tides follow on October 22, when the range shrinks to 0.5 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.9 ft on October 29, and the lowest is −1.2 ft on January 21.

Barbours Cut is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1973. The nearest other station is Umbrella Point, 7 mi away. For tidal currents, see Morgans Point.

Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
