Texas Tide Charts

High tide arrives at a different time at each station. Alligator Point, West Bay reaches 1.22 ft at 11:25 pm; Aransas Wildlife Refuge reaches 0.79 ft at 7:58 am; Aransas, Aransas Pass reaches 1.95 ft at 7:24 pm. The table above lists the next high and the next low for all 75 Texas stations.

Sabine Offshore Light, where high and low water differ by 2.6 ft today. The smallest of the 69 Texas stations with a range today is Aransas Wildlife Refuge at 0.2 ft. Range varies along a coast because the shape of a bay or estuary amplifies or damps the same ocean tide.

Yes, at Conn Brown Harbor, Aransas Pass, Copano Bay, La Qunita Channel North and 1 other. The lowest is -0.08 ft at 4:06 pm. A minus tide is water below mean lower low water, the zero point for US predictions, and it exposes ground that is normally covered.

All 75 Texas stations here are diurnal, which means one high and one low a day. Each station page classifies itself from its own predictions rather than from a regional rule, because the pattern changes along a single coast.

NOAA states roughly ten minutes on timing and half a foot on height for a reference station in ordinary weather. 69 of the 75 stations here are reference stations; the rest are subordinate, with times and heights derived from one by a published offset, so expect a little more spread. Weather is the bigger factor either way. A storm surge or a strong onshore wind can raise real water well above the prediction, which is astronomy only.
