About the tides at Point Clear

Tides at Mobile Bay are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. The mean range is small, about 1.5 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on Friday, with a range of 2.3 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 0.1 ft.

This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 2010 to 2011 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Fly Creek, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 13 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Great Point Clear, channel west of.
