About this station

NOAA builds the predictions for Channel Two, east, Lower Matecumbe Key, Fla. Bay from the KEY WEST station: high tides about 0.85× the height, 49 min earlier; low tides about 0.54× the height, 42 min earlier.

Two coasts, two personalities: modest 2 to 4 ft semidiurnal ranges on the Atlantic side, mixed tides on the Gulf side, and king tides that flood streets on calm, sunny days.
