About the tides at Steelmanville
This is a mixed-tide station. Some days bring a deep low and a shallow low, and a few days have only one of each. The average range is about 3.7 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 4.2 ft. The next spring tides peak on Sunday, with a range of 4.4 ft. Neap tides follow on October 19, when the range shrinks to 3.1 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 5.2 ft on December 25, and the lowest is −0.4 ft on September 1.
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 in 1979 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Dock Thorofare, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 25 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Corson's Inlet Entrance.
