Thor's Well tide times by month
Where these tide times come from
We fit 18 tidal constituents to modelled hourly sea level for the nearest open-sea grid point (44.29, -124.12), then predict any date with astronomical arguments and nodal corrections. In a held-out week our high and low water times differed from the model forecast by a median of 5 minutes.
Local harbours, river flow, wind and air pressure shift real tides by tens of minutes and heights by tens of centimetres. Check the local official tide table before you go.
Times are local (America/Los_Angeles). Heights are relative to mean sea level, not chart datum. Source data: Open-Meteo Marine API.
