About the tides at Pikmiktalik River entrance
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The pattern follows the reference station at Unalakleet. On a typical day the water moves about 2.6 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 3.9 ft, comes on Friday, and the smallest, 2.0 ft, on November 20. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 5.3 ft on July 4 and bottom out at −0.5 ft on December 11.
Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Unalakleet, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Stebbins, 19 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min earlier.
Predictions are based on Unalakleet.
