About the tides at Palatka
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.1 ft. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.5 ft, comes on October 9, and the smallest, 1.2 ft, on Monday.
Predictions for Palatka come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Buffalo Bluff, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 34 min later.
Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
