About the Tides at Aransas Wildlife Refuge
Aransas Wildlife Refuge gets just one high tide and one low tide on most days, instead of the two a day many coasts see. On a typical day the water rises and falls about 0.2 feet. Tides here are small, so wind and river flow can move the water as much as the tide does.
Over the next two weeks the biggest tides come on Wednesday, November 11, when the water moves about 0.3 feet. The lowest water is 0.3 ft on Friday, November 20 at 1:57 PM, and the highest is 0.6 ft on Monday, November 9 at 5:33 AM.
NOAA station 8774230 here measures the water live and reports its temperature. Minor flooding starts when the water reaches 2.1 ft.
