The ‘Tide’ screen shows a graphical chart which displays tide station information in a 24 hour span
starting at midnight (station time). You can choose from different dates and over 3000 tide stations
around the U.S. coastline, Alaska, Hawaii, Western Canada and several of the Caribbean Islands.
The top of the page displays the tide station being referenced, with the date directly below. The
top of the chart shows a 24-hour block of local time (LCL) for your position, with the reported station
time (STA) appearing at the bottom. Daytime (light bar) and nighttime (dark bar) show across the time
scale, with the time progressing from left to right (local time scales and sunrise/sunset info may not be
available for a few stations). The solid, light vertical lines represent 4-hour increments, and the light,
dotted vertical lines are 1-hour increments. A gray, vertical line (with a block above displaying time)
indicates the time of day when using current date and intersects the tide graph to show their relation.
The tide curve shows as a shaded area, with higher tides being taller and lower tides shorter. The
gray, horizontal line (with a block at the left displaying depth) indicates the current tide height. The
Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) appears as a solid, horizontal line near the bottom of the chart (this
line only appears if the tide ranges to the zero value or below). The numbers adjacent to ‘LCL’ and ‘STA’
indicate the maximum and minimum levels, respectively. The four data fi elds below the chart, indicate
event times and levels at which the tide changes.
Hunt & Fish indicates the best times for hunting and fi shing. This
information can be displayed for any location or any time/date.
