About the tides at Oregon Inlet 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 1.3 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. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.6 ft, comes on October 10, and the smallest, 1.5 ft, on Sunday.

Oregon Inlet Channel is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Oregon Inlet Bridge, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 8 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Herbert C. Bonner Bridge, WSW of.
