About the tides at Pearlington
Pearlington usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. The pattern follows the reference station at South Pass. Water here rises and falls only about 1.1 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.3 ft, comes on October 30, and the smallest, 0.2 ft, on Friday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.2 ft on October 30 and bottom out at −1.1 ft on January 20.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at South Pass, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. NOAA measured the tide here from 1978 to 1984 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is The Rigolets, 9 mi away.
Predictions are based on South Pass.
