About the tides at Withlacoochee River entrance
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. On a typical day the water moves about 2.4 ft between high and low. That is larger than most Florida stations on this site. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 4.1 ft, comes today, and the smallest, 2.7 ft, on Tuesday.
Withlacoochee River entrance is a subordinate station, so NOAA publishes only its high and low times and heights. The nearest other station is Florida Power, 4 mi away, where high tide comes about 10 min earlier.
Tide predictions and water levels from NOAA CO-OPS. For planning only, not for navigation. Real water levels can differ because of wind, air pressure and river flow. Always check conditions on site.
