About the tides at Southwest Fork
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Loxahatchee River, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Miami Beach, Government Cut. The mean range is small, about 1.8 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.0 ft on September 29, and the lowest is −1.1 ft on January 23.
Southwest Fork is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Miami Beach, Government Cut: highs come about 41 min and lows about 95 min later than there. The nearest other station is Tequesta, 1 mi away, where high tide comes about 33 min later.
Predictions are based on Miami Beach, Government Cut.
