About this station
NOAA builds the predictions for Fossil River entrance from the NOME station: high tides about 1.13× the height, 240 min earlier; low tides about 0.67× the height, 248 min earlier.
Ranges here are small — often just a few feet — and wind-driven surge can swamp the astronomical prediction entirely. Many of these stations are ice-locked and quiet through the winter.
