↑ Rising The tide is rising. 5 h 27 min to high tide at 6:19 am.
Tide coefficient 93 for the 6:19 am high tide and 89 for the 6:27 pm high tide. Spring tides. The water rises and falls 7.5 ft between the highest high and the lowest low: a large range for this place. 70 is an average tide here; 90 and above means spring tides; below 45, neap tides. What is the tide coefficient?
2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on December 25 (8.8 ft) and the lowest, on April 19 (0.1 ft).
Mixed: two high and two low tides a day, but of quite different heights.
Heights above lower low water, large tide (LLWLT), the zero of Canadian charts. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. LLWLT
Tide coefficient and range in October
The biggest tides of the month came from October 27 to 28 (coefficient 98, 7.6 ft range). The smallest, on October 19 (coefficient 33, 3.2 ft).

Where this tide comes from
Nigadoo has no station of its own, so we use the tide at Belledune (TICON-4), 13 mi away. On the open coast the difference is usually a few minutes and inches; inside estuaries, rivers and enclosed bays it can be much larger.

Waves build over the next few days. The biggest waves arrive on Saturday 31: 2.4 ft with a period of 4 s, from the northwest (slight).
Water temperature

Slack water comes from the tide: in inlets, channels and between islands the water can keep running for an hour or two after. Ask the local dive shop.

Moon phase and position
Today the moon is 226,718 mi away and looks 32′ 44″ across.
Solunar periods
Today's activity: medium- 3:00–5:00 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
- 3:32–5:32 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
- 12:13–1:13 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
- 7:52–8:52 pm Minor · moonrise · medium activity
According to solunar theory, fish feed more when the moon passes overhead or underfoot (major periods, about 2 h) and when it rises or sets (minor periods, 1 h). It works best around new and full moon.
