About the tides at Pole Anchorage
Pole Anchorage has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The pattern follows the reference station at Sitka, Baronof Island, Sitka Sound. The range is large, about 8.8 ft on average. Flats and bars appear and vanish quickly, so keep an eye on the time. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 14.0 ft on December 24, and the lowest is −3.3 ft on July 5.
Pole Anchorage is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Sitka, Baronof Island, Sitka Sound: highs come about 22 min and lows about 22 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is Edna Bay, 6 mi away. For tidal currents, see Warren Channel.
Predictions are based on Sitka, Baronof Island, Sitka Sound.
