About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Folly Creek, Hwy. 171 bridge from the CHARLESTON (Customhouse Wharf) station: high tides about 1.04× the height, 25 min later; low tides about the same height, 6 min earlier.
Georgia and the Carolinas run the biggest ranges on the Southeast coast — 7 to 10 ft through marsh creeks and barrier-island inlets that rearrange themselves with every storm.
