About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Empire Jetty from the EAST POINT, GRAND ISLE station: high tides about 1.23× the height, 63 min earlier; low tides about 1.23× the height, 105 min earlier.
The northern Gulf runs small, mostly diurnal tides — often just one high and one low a day — where wind and river flow routinely outvote the moon.
