About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Matecumbe Bight, Lower Matecumbe Key, Fla. Bay from the KEY WEST station: high tides about 0.55× the height, 18 min earlier; low tides about 0.38× the height, 33 min later.
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.
