About Tchefuncta River, Lake Pontchartrain tides
Tchefuncta River, Lake Pontchartrain is a NOAA subordinate station (8761993): NOAA predicts its times and heights from South Pass (8760551) with offsets for this spot, so treat them as a close guide rather than an exact prediction. Heights are in feet above MLLW (Mean Lower Low Water), the datum of US nautical charts, so they line up with charted depths.
In the next 30 days, Tchefuncta River, Lake Pontchartrain has one high and one low on 26 days, three turns on 2 days and some other count on 2 days, and the daily range runs from 0.1 to 1.3 ft. That is a mostly diurnal tide: one high and one low on most days.
Use the curve above to time a harbor entrance, a beach walk, fishing a moving tide or clearing a shallow bar, and remember that wind, air pressure and river flow can push the real water level above or below the prediction. The daily tidal range in the tables shows how much water moves each day: bigger ranges around the new and full moon mean stronger currents.
The latest water temperature near Tchefuncta River, Lake Pontchartrain is about 73°F, from NOAA station 8761927, 24 mi away, at 7:48 PM CDT. Water temperature shapes where fish hold and feed, and tells you what to wear in the water, so check it alongside the tide before you head out.
