Times are the middle of each turn. The small times underneath are slack water, when the level stays close to high or low.

Our predictions from the Snape gauge, 9 km away. Heights are above the year's lowest tide. This uses Environment Agency tide gauge data from the real-time data API (Beta). Not for navigation.
