About the tides at Tesoro Marine Terminal

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. Water here rises and falls only about 0.4 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. That is smaller than most Louisiana stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 0.6 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 0.3 ft, on November 19. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 1.9 ft on May 8 and bottom out at −1.0 ft on September 30.

A live NOAA gauge measures the water here, and predictions are calculated from this station's own records. It also reports water temperature, wind and air pressure. It was established in 2003. The nearest other station is Stouts Pass at Six Mile Lake, 5 mi away, where high tide comes about 43 min later.
