About the tides at Pensacola

Tides at Pensacola Bay are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. The mean range is small, about 1.2 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 1.6 ft. Neap tides follow on November 19, when the range shrinks to 0.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.0 ft on October 3, and the lowest is −1.0 ft on January 21.

Pensacola Bay is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 1923. The nearest other station is Warrington, 6 mi away, where high tide comes about 27 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Pensacola Bay entrance, midchannel.
