About the tides at Port Edward
Tides here follow a regular twice-daily rhythm. The two daily highs usually differ by only 0.47 m. Port Edward sees a mean range of about 3.92 m. Low tide can expose a wide area, and the return is fast. That is larger than most British Columbia stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 5.87 m, comes on Saturday, and the smallest, 2.42 m, on October 16.
Predictions for Port Edward come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. The nearest other station is Pembina Terminal, 0.9 km away. For tidal currents, see Skeena River, Middle Passage. Heights are measured from chart datum, which in most Canadian tidal waters is set near the lowest normal tide. That is why lows here rarely go below zero.
