This data is from five tide stations located in waterways throughout Norfolk: Elizabeth River, Grandy Village, Lafayette River, Mason Creek, Ocean View Recreation Center. This data will allow users to track and analyze tide levels in the city of Norfolk. The data is updated every six minutes and encompasses a rolling year.

Note: At the Mason Creek tide station, the water flows through a weir system (small dam) that alters the flow characteristics of the water; data from this tide station will differ from the other four tide stations.

Note: The Pretty Lake tide station communication line has been damaged and is not currently transmitting data. Repairs are underway and data transmission should begin again in June 2021.
