Common Questions About Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA Tides

Collapse All
When is the lowest tide this week in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA?

The lowest tide this week in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA is 0.7 ft on Friday, Sep 18 at 6:26 am.

When is the highest tide this week in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA?

The highest tide this week in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA is 13.7 ft on Thursday, Sep 24 at 6:12 pm — worth noting for launching your boat and being alert for possible high tide flooding.

Is this week a spring tide or neap tide in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA?

Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA is currently in a neap phase. Tonight's moon is 49% illuminated. Spring tides (largest swings) occur near new and full moons; neap tides (smallest swings) occur near first and third quarter moons. Tidal ranges this week are near their weekly minimum.

What datum are Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA tide heights measured from?

Tide heights on this page are measured from Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW), the U.S. NOAA standard. A height of 0 ft represents the 19-year average of each day's lower low tide. Negative values indicate a "minus tide" — water levels below that long-term reference.

What factors can affect the tide predictions for Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA?

Tide predictions for Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA come from NOAA's harmonic analysis and are typically accurate within about ±10 minutes on timing and ±0.5 ft on height. Actual water levels can deviate further due to sustained winds, atmospheric pressure changes, river flow, and storm surge. During major weather events, be sure to check US Harbors weather pages for factors that could impact tidal predictions.

Which NOAA station provides tide data for Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA?

Tide data for Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA is sourced from NOAA Station #9446628. View the official NOAA station page at https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/stationhome.html?id=9446628.

What time is high tide in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA today?

High tides in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA today: 2:06 pm (12.2 ft), 11:30 pm (10.7 ft). The 2:06 pm high of 12.2 ft is notably higher than the other — known as diurnal inequality, common on coasts influenced by lunar declination.

What time is low tide in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA today?

Low tides in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA today: 6:26 am (0.7 ft), 8:34 pm (7.2 ft).

What is the tidal range in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA today?

Today's tidal range in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA is 11.5 ft — the difference between the day's highest and lowest water level. This month's average daily range is about 13.3 ft, so today's swing is below-average.

What is the moon phase in Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA tonight?

Tonight the moon over Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA is First Quarter (49% illuminated). This places Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA in a neap tide cycle, so tidal ranges are near their weekly minimum this week.

What type of tides does Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA have — semi-diurnal, diurnal, or mixed?

Shelton, Oakland Bay, WA has semi-diurnal tides — two high tides and two low tides roughly every 24 hours and 50 minutes, with similar heights.

US Harbors Tidal Data

The data in our tide charts, tide tables, and tide graphs is provided by NOAA and others. These predictions are derived mathematically from numerous inputs, including data from historical tide stations and nearby locations where sensors are actively recording. As shown in the tide graph at the top of this page, “Predicted” tides (blue) are what forecasting models expect to happen. “Observed” tides (red) are those recorded by local sensors in real time, overlaid on the predictions for direct comparison. We display Observed water levels for a select group of harbors including Portland, Maine, where a physical sensor monitors water levels in real time.
