About the tides at Northeast Cape
Northeast Cape has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. On a typical day the water moves about 2.0 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.5 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.0 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 1.3 ft, on Thursday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 3.1 ft on November 27 and bottom out at −0.4 ft on November 27.
Predictions for Northeast Cape come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1951 to 2011 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Fossil River entrance, 34 mi away, where high tide comes about 15 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Off Northeast Cape.
