About the tides at Point Barrow

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 Galveston Pier 21, Galveston Channel. Water here rises and falls only about 0.9 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.4 ft, comes tomorrow, and the smallest, 0.4 ft, on November 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.6 ft on October 28 and bottom out at −1.0 ft on January 21.

Tides here are worked out from the reference station at Galveston Pier 21, Galveston Channel, with NOAA time and height corrections. Times are good for planning, but local wind can shift them. The nearest other station is Umbrella Point, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 35 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Morgans Point.

Predictions are based on Galveston Pier 21, Galveston Channel.
