About the tides at Valparaiso
Valparaiso usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. The mean range is small, about 0.4 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. That is smaller than most Florida stations on this site. The next spring tides peak on Saturday, with a range of 0.6 ft. Neap tides follow on October 9, when the range shrinks to 0.0 ft.
This is a prediction station. NOAA calculates its tides from past measurements at this spot, but there is no live gauge today. The nearest other station is Rocky Bayou, 3 mi away.
