Engelhard tides

Predicted from Engelhard, NOAA station 8653471, 2 miles away. Pamlico Sound is all but enclosed, and the moon barely reaches it — the range here is under a foot. What moves this water is the wind. A hard northeaster can push more out of the sound in a day than the tide will shift in a week, and a westerly piles it back against the banks. Read the figures below as a guide, and the forecast as the better one. Heights in feet above MLLW. Also covers Far Creek, Lake Mattamuskeet and Pamlico Sound.

About Engelhard

A remote, historic mainland fishing community overlooking the vast Pamlico Sound, Engelhard covers Far Creek and the nearby Lake Mattamuskeet. The coastal experience here is deeply tied to the commercial seafood industry, with visitors watching massive shrimp trawlers navigate Far Creek, birdwatching for migratory waterfowl, and fishing the sound edges. The tidal movement of the Pamlico Sound directly dictates the commercial action; high tide is the absolute best time for the heavy shrimp boats to safely navigate the shallow entrance of Far Creek to unload their catch at the docks.
