About the tides at Vancouver
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 average range is about 2.4 ft. Spring tides add a little more at both ends. That is smaller than most Washington stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.2 ft. The next spring tides peak on October 27, with a range of 3.1 ft. Neap tides follow on Monday, when the range shrinks to 1.0 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 3.7 ft on December 23, and the lowest is −0.7 ft on September 1.
Vancouver is a NOAA water level station with a live gauge, updated every 6 minutes. Predictions come from the station's own tide records. It was established in 1938. The nearest other station is Knapp Landing, 8 mi away, where high tide comes about 38 min earlier.
