About this station
- High tide reaches Snow Point, 0.4 mi. North of about 1.4 hours after the moon passes overhead. That lag is local, which is why high water does not line up with the moon.
- Highest water on record: 7.3 ft on Jun 1, 1977.
- Lowest on record: -2.3 ft on Jan 16, 1977.
- NOAA predicts tides here from Charleston (Customhouse Wharf), station 8665530. High tide comes about 59 min later and low tide about 45 min later than there.
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 Snow Point, 0.4 mi. North of from the 1983-2001 National Tidal Datum Epoch; mean higher high water is 5.8 ft above it and mean sea level 3.1 ft. These datums are controlled from NOAA's Charleston, SC gauge. Source: NOAA CO-OPS station 8664515, established 1976, gauge removed 1977. 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.
