About the tides at U.S. 17 Bridge
Expect two roughly equal high tides a day at Combahee River at US Hwy. 17, each arriving about 50 minutes later than the day before. The pattern follows the reference station at Fort Pulaski, Savannah River. The average range is about 4.8 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 5.3 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 6.5 ft. Neap tides follow today, when the range shrinks to 2.8 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 6.3 ft on October 27, and the lowest is −2.1 ft on January 23.
U.S. 17 Bridge is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Fort Pulaski, Savannah River: highs come about 180 min and lows about 149 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here from 1976 to 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Bluff Plantation, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 1 h 17 m later. For tidal currents, see Williman Creek.
Predictions are based on Fort Pulaski, Savannah River.
