About the tides at Texas Gas Platform

Most days here have a single high and a single low. Around neap tides the pattern can blur into small double tides. Water here rises and falls only about 1.3 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.6 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.5 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 0.5 ft, on Friday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.0 ft on December 23 and bottom out at −0.8 ft on December 23.

Predictions for Texas Gas Platform 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 2008 to 2012 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Raccoon Point, 8 mi away, where high tide comes about 33 min earlier.
