About the tides at Point Spencer
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.1 ft. The mean range is small, about 1.1 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.3 ft. The next spring tides peak on Friday, with a range of 1.3 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 0.8 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 1950 to 2010 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Lost River, 13 mi away, where high tide comes about 26 min later.
