About the tides at Pascagoula

Tides at South Side are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. The mean range is small, about 1.6 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on Friday, with a range of 2.6 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 0.5 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Dock E, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 38 min later. For tidal currents, see Horn Island, Petit Bois Island, between.
