About the tides at Stebbins
Tides at Norton Sound are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. The average range is about 2.2 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Alaska stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 2.7 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 31, with a range of 6.0 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 1.7 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.0 ft on July 5, and the lowest is −1.9 ft on December 26.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. NOAA measured the tide here from 1982 to 2020 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is St. Michael, 9 mi away, where high tide comes about 38 min later.
