These charts are graphic presentations of the speed and direction of the tidal current for each hour of the tidal cycle throughout Admiralty Inlet and the north and south parts of Puget Sound. The charts are intended to be used in conjunction with tidal current tables. Each page gives a pictorial “snapshot” of the current flow for a specific hour of the tidal cycle, and you determine that hour from the time of maximum flood and maximum ebb for the day in question. The charts can be used for any year, they do not go out of date, but you need a set of up to date current tables to tell you which page applies at which time... or get the Max Ebb and Max Flood times online. There are numerous places that tabulate the data. The reference stations used are Bush Point for the North Sound and Admiralty Inlet and Tacoma Narrows, North End for the South Sound.
These charts were originally a government publication of the National Ocean Survey division of NOAA. They are no longer published by NOAA or any other government agency. This presentation is published and distributed by |
