About the tides at Pascagoula NOAA Lab

Pascagoula NOAA Lab usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. Water here rises and falls only about 1.4 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.8 ft, comes on Tuesday, and the smallest, 0.4 ft, tomorrow. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.3 ft on October 2 and bottom out at −1.2 ft on January 20.

A live NOAA gauge measures the water here, and predictions are calculated from this station's own records. It also reports water temperature and air pressure. It was established in 2005. The nearest other station is Pascagoula, Mississippi Sound, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Horn Island, Petit Bois Island, between.
