About the tides at Nicholson Creek
Nicholson Creek has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. On a typical day the water moves about 1.29 m between high and low. That is smaller than most Ontario stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.89 m, comes on October 30, and the smallest, 0.92 m, tomorrow.
Predictions for Nicholson Creek come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. It was established in 1960. The nearest other station is Moosonee, 5.0 km away, where high tide comes about 21 min later. Heights are measured from chart datum, which in most Canadian tidal waters is set near the lowest normal tide. That is why lows here rarely go below zero.
