Tides in Strömsfors

Today's high and low tides

  • ▼ Low tide 2:31 pm 0.0 ft
  • ▲ High tide 6:17 pm 0.1 ft

↑ Rising The tide is rising. 6 h 36 min to high tide at 7:17 am.

In Strömsfors the astronomical tide is very small: about 0.2 ft between high and low tide. Here the sea level is moved mostly by wind and air pressure (storm surge), which can raise or lower it more than the tide itself.

2026 extremes: the highest tide of the year is on December 24 (0.4 ft) and the lowest, on April 30 (-0.4 ft).

Heights above mean sea level. Astronomical prediction: wind and air pressure can raise or lower the water by a few inches, and more in a storm. Not for navigation. mean sea level

Where this tide comes from

No significant tide

How we calculate the tide

Sea and waves

The sea at Strömsfors

Hourly wind

Sea state

The wave model doesn't reach Strömsfors: it's on inland water (an estuary, sound or sheltered bay) or far from the open sea. Wind is still available right here.

Wind on the coast and offshore

On the coast 3 mph SW · gusts 8

The model doesn't separate offshore wind here: it's the same as on the coast.

Cross-onshore wind. The coast faces south and the wind comes in from the sea at an angle: a bit more surf at the shore and drift along the coast, toward land.

Today 48.4–48.6 °F air: 43 / 52 °F
Satellite (2 days ago) 50.0 °F measured 1.4 mi away

Water temperature changes how fish behave: in very cold or very warm water they feed less. The water cools over the next few days: about 46.2 °F by Wednesday 4.

Water warmer than normal for late October (+1.2 °F).

Pressure and fishing

  • ↘ FallingFalling Anglers say fish feed more before the change

Steady now (−0.00 inHg in 3 hours). Over the next 48 hours: +0.26 inHg. Steady pressure: anglers expect normal activity. Fast changes, either way, tend to affect fishing.

Solunar periods

Today's activity: high
  • 1:17–3:17 am Major · the moon passes overhead · high activity
  • 1:49–3:49 pm Major · the moon passes underfoot · high activity
  • 12:10–1:10 pm Minor · moonset · medium activity
  • 4:28–5:28 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.

Water depth

Deepens quickly

The bottom deepens quickly: 33 ft of water 0.3 mi from shore.

From the shoreline (1 mi from Strömsfors) out to sea, heading southwest.

How far from shore

  • 16 ft deep1,100 ft
  • 33 ft deep0.3 mi
  • 66 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi
  • 164 ft deepnot within 3.1 mi

For fishing, swimming and diving

  • Shore fishing. 33 ft of water just 0.3 mi from shore: a good cast reaches deep water. Current and surf hit harder here.
  • Swimming. The water gets deeper little by little, but a few dozen yards out you can no longer stand.
  • Diving. 33 ft deep 0.3 mi from shore; 66 ft is far out (beyond 3.1 mi): for deeper dives, go by boat.

Inside bays, estuaries and harbors the bottom changes a lot from spot to spot (channels and shoals): use this only as a rough guide. The profile is turned slightly from the coast so it does not run into an island or a headland.
