Where Alameda Naval Air Station is
Alameda Naval Air Station sits at 37.7933° N, 122.3150° W on San Francisco Bay, at Alameda, CA, in Alameda County. The station here is a subordinate tide prediction point. NOAA has no gauge in the water at this spot; its times and heights are published as offsets from a reference gauge, named below. The closest gauge measuring live water level is Alameda (NOAA 9414750), 1.7 mi away, and high and low water here run on average about 4 min earlier than there. The nearest weather station is Oakland Middle Harbor Met, CA, a shore station reporting wind and, at most sites, water temperature, 1.0 mi away.
The tide at Alameda Naval Air Station
Alameda Naval Air Station has a mixed tide: two highs and two lows a day, but of unequal size, so one low each day drains noticeably lower than the other. This month's predictions average 1.9 high tides a day here. The mean range from lower low to higher high is 6.4 ft, and 4.7 ft between the average high and the average low, a large tide. On an average day the higher high tops the lower high by 0.6 ft and the lower low sits 1.1 ft below the other low. For the water around it: Bay tides are mixed semidiurnal, two unequal highs a day with a range near 6 ft at the Golden Gate that shifts in time as it moves into the bay and up the rivers.
About this station
- High tide reaches Alameda Naval Air Station about 7.9 hours after the moon passes overhead. That lag is local, which is why high water does not line up with the moon.
- NOAA predicts tides here from San Francisco (Golden Gate), station 9414290. High tide comes about 24 min later and low tide about 33 min later than there.
- High tide heights run about 1.11 times the reference.
Datum and source
Heights on this page are feet above mean lower low water (MLLW), the zero NOAA's nautical charts use for soundings. A predicted 0.0 ft low is the average of the lower low each day; a minus tide is water below chart datum, and a 2 ft high means 2 ft more water than the chart shows. NOAA fixes MLLW at Alameda Naval Air Station from the 1983-2001 National Tidal Datum Epoch; mean higher high water is 6.4 ft above it and mean sea level 3.4 ft. These datums are controlled from NOAA's Alameda, CA gauge. Source: NOAA CO-OPS station 9414767, established 1994, gauge removed 1994. The tide times and heights are published as time and height offsets from its reference gauge; TidalMap republishes them daily and does not alter them.
