About the tides at Old House Channel

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. Water here rises and falls only about 0.6 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most North Carolina stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 0.9 ft. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.2 ft on September 29 and bottom out at −0.2 ft on January 22.

Predictions for Old House Channel 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 1975 to 2002 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Roanoke Sound Channel, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 11 m later. For tidal currents, see Herbert C. Bonner Bridge, Wsw of.
