The tide at Tesoro Marine Terminal
Tesoro Marine Terminal has a mixed tide: two highs and two lows a day, but of unequal size, so one low each day drains a little lower than the other. This month's predictions average 1.5 high tides a day here. The mean range from lower low to higher high is 0.5 ft, and 0.5 ft between the average high and the average low, a small tide. For the water around it: Northern Gulf tides are diurnal, one high and one low most days with ranges of 1 to 2 ft, so wind and river stage move the water as much as the moon.

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 Tesoro Marine Terminal from the 1983-2001 National Tidal Datum Epoch; mean higher high water is 0.5 ft above it and mean sea level 0.3 ft. The land survey datum NAVD88, the zero on topographic maps and flood maps, is 1.6 ft below MLLW here, so a water level on this page converts to NAVD88 by adding that amount. These datums are controlled from NOAA's Sabine Pass North, TX gauge. Source: NOAA CO-OPS station 8764044, established 2003. The tide times and heights are NOAA's official harmonic predictions for this station; TidalMap republishes them daily and does not alter them. The observed line is the gauge's own six-minute water level feed.
