About the tides at Sievers Cove

Sievers Cove usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. Water here rises and falls only about 1.0 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.2 ft, comes on Thursday, and the smallest, 0.4 ft, on October 22. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.9 ft on October 2 and bottom out at −1.2 ft on January 21.

Predictions for Sievers Cove come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 2019 to 2020 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Galveston Bay Entrance, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 3 h 37 m earlier. For tidal currents, see Galveston Bay Ent. (between jetties).
