About the tides at Taft

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 pattern follows the reference station at Crescent City. The average range is about 4.9 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. The next spring tides peak today, with a range of 7.5 ft. Neap tides follow on Friday, when the range shrinks to 4.0 ft.

Taft is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Crescent City: highs come about 48 min and lows about 73 min later than there. The nearest other station is Kernville, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 36 min later.

Predictions are based on Crescent City.
