About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Tchefuncta River, Lake Pontchartrain from the SOUTH PASS station: high tides about 0.48× the height, 696 min later; low tides about 0.48× the height, 741 min later.
The northern Gulf runs small, mostly diurnal tides — often just one high and one low a day — where wind and river flow routinely outvote the moon.
