About the tides at Port Eads
Most days here have a single high and a single low. Around neap tides the pattern can blur into small double tides. The pattern follows the reference station at South Pass. The mean range is small, about 1.1 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on October 26, with a range of 1.5 ft. Neap tides follow on October 23, when the range shrinks to 0.3 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.0 ft on October 30, and the lowest is −1.0 ft on January 20.
Port Eads is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting South Pass: highs come about 56 min later and lows about 17 min earlier than there. The nearest other station is South Pass, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 56 min earlier.
Predictions are based on South Pass.
