Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 11.7 ft, comes on Tuesday, and the smallest, 6.8 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 13.4 ft on December 26 and bottom out at −3.9 ft on December 24.

Predictions for Quilcene come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 1995 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Whitney Point, 3 mi away. For tidal currents, see Bangor, Hood Canal Lb B.
