About the tides at Red Dog Dock
Red Dog Dock has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. The mean range is small, about 0.7 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 1.0 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 0.9 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 0.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 1.7 ft on August 6, and the lowest is −0.4 ft on March 24.
Red Dog Dock is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 2003. The nearest other station is Kivalina, 17 mi away, where high tide comes about 6 min earlier.
