About the tides at Windsor Plantation

Windsor Plantation has a semidiurnal tide: two highs and two lows of similar height each day, about 12 hours and 25 minutes apart. On a typical day the water moves about 3.4 ft between high and low. That is smaller than most South Carolina stations on this site. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 3.8 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.1 ft, comes on October 28, and the smallest, 2.8 ft, today. Looking a year ahead, predictions peak at 4.6 ft on July 4 and bottom out at −0.6 ft on January 24.

Predictions for Windsor Plantation come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here from 1975 to 1977 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Waccamaw River Entrance, 3 mi away, where high tide comes about 27 min earlier. For tidal currents, see Butler Island, 0.3 mile south of.
