About the tides at Wetappo Creek

Wetappo Creek usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. The pattern follows the reference station at Pensacola, Pensacola Bay. The mean range is small, about 1.5 ft, so wind and pressure can matter as much as the tide itself. The next spring tides peak on October 30, with a range of 2.2 ft. Neap tides follow on Thursday, when the range shrinks to 0.4 ft. In the next 12 months the highest predicted tide here is 2.2 ft on October 3, and the lowest is −1.1 ft on January 21.

Wetappo Creek is a subordinate station. NOAA predicts its tides by adjusting Pensacola, Pensacola Bay: highs come about 61 min and lows about 100 min later than there. NOAA measured the tide here in 1976 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Overstreet, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 44 min earlier.

Predictions are based on Pensacola, Pensacola Bay.
