Predicted Time of Tides at Nome
(By John A. Wilson)
Following i
dictions for i
High Water
the table of tide pre
e coming week.
Aug. 24
The predicted times of high and
low water will not always correspond
with the actual occurence of the tides,
as the water levels are often more de
pendent on wind than tide. For this
reason no accurate prediction of the
height of water at high or low tide can
heglven. The extreme tidal range is
2#.8 It., and the range between Mean
Lower Low Water and Mean Higher
High Water is 1.4 ft. All water
levels a're referred to Mean Lower Low’
Water. The monument in the ex
treme southwest corner of Barrack
Square is 14 ft. above this datum.
During the storm of 1913 the water
rose to 11 ft. above M. L. L. W., and
with northerly winds in the fall It
has been 4 ft. below this datum.”
