About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Channel Five, west side, Hawk Channel from the KEY WEST station: high tides about the same height, 58 min earlier; low tides about 0.67× the height, 41 min earlier.

Two coasts, two personalities: modest 2 to 4 ft semidiurnal ranges on the Atlantic side, mixed tides on the Gulf side, and king tides that flood streets on calm, sunny days.
