About the tides at SW Pass

Tides at SW Pass are mostly diurnal: one rise and one fall a day, with a slow change between them. Water here rises and falls only about 1.2 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 1.5 ft, comes on Wednesday, and the smallest, 0.4 ft, on October 22. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.0 ft on October 29 and bottom out at −0.9 ft on January 20.

Predictions for SW Pass 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 1996 to 2004 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Southwest Pass, 0.8 mi away, where high tide comes about 35 min later.
