About the tides at St. Petersburg
St. Petersburg 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 1.6 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak tomorrow, with a range of 2.8 ft. Neap tides follow on October 8, when the range shrinks to 1.6 ft.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Point Pinellas, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 22 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Port of St. Petersburg approach, marker 'S'.
