Metadata
NOTE: Coastal flood impacts are dependent upon waves as well as tide level. High waves can result in flooding even if the tide level is below flood stage.

NOTE: Graphical forecasts are not available for the Gulf of Mexico Tide Gauge at Bird Island. During times of high water, forecast crest information can be found in the text products.

Vertical Datum references a tidal datum...for more information see Tides and Currents .
