About the tides at Weeks Bay

Weeks Bay has a mixed tide. The two daily highs, and especially the two lows, can differ a lot in height. 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, 2.4 ft, comes on October 27, and the smallest, 0.6 ft, on Thursday. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 2.4 ft on July 3 and bottom out at −1.4 ft on December 23.

Predictions for Weeks Bay come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 2001 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Cypremort Point, 9 mi away, where high tide comes about 33 min earlier.
