About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Herring Bay from the Juneau station: high tides about 0.84× the height, 8 min earlier; low tides about 0.91× the height, 7 min earlier.

Alaska holds the country's most extreme tides: Inside Passage channels, Cook Inlet swings past 30 ft, and Arctic stations where the tide is measured in inches and wind setup runs the show.
