About the tides at Nelson Island
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. The range is large, about 8.2 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 9.7 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 30, with a range of 12.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 6.5 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 11.2 ft on December 28, and the lowest is −2.0 ft on December 25.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1951 to 2016 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Newtok, 33 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 19 m later.
