Today at Cape Krusenstern, AK
Today's predicted high and low waters, sunrise and sunset for Cape Krusenstern, AK load here from NOAA. Without JavaScript they cannot be shown: NOAA's own table for station 9490571 is at tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov. Everything else on this page is measured and does not change from day to day.
What the tide does at Cape Krusenstern, AK
Across the 1153 high and low waters NOAA predicts here for 2027, high water averages 0.42 ft above MLLW and low water 0.05 ft — a mean range of 0.36 ft. Taking each day's higher high and lower low, which is the swing someone standing on the shore actually sees, the average is 0.53 ft.
On 59% of days in 2027 there are two high waters and on the remaining 146 days only one. Where there are two, they differ in height by 0.24 ft on average. Successive high waters are 15h 10m apart on average.
The largest daily swing of 2027 is 0.81 ft on 8 July 2027 and the smallest is 0.06 ft on 17 February 2027 — on that day the water barely moves at all.

What MLLW means here
Every height on this page is feet above MLLW — mean lower low water, the chart datum NOAA publishes tide predictions against. It is the average of the lower of each day's low waters, taken over a 19-year period, so zero here is neither the sea bed nor the average sea level: it is a level the water drops below regularly. At Cape Krusenstern, AK, 189 of the 576 low waters predicted for 2027 — 33% of them — fall below zero, the lowest being -0.15 ft on 7 July 2027.
Practically: a chart showing 6 ft of water here means about 6 ft at a mean lower low water and about 6.5 ft at a mean higher high. Add the predicted height for the moment you care about to the charted depth.
Where these predictions come from
This is a reference station: NOAA computes its predictions directly, from a harmonic analysis of water levels measured at this location, rather than by offsetting another station's table.
Daylight at this latitude
Cape Krusenstern, AK sits at 67.0542° N. On 39 days of 2027 the sun does not set here at all, and on 0 it does not rise.
Day lengths are computed with NOAA's published solar algorithm from the station's latitude and longitude. Clock times for sunrise and sunset are deliberately not printed here: they depend on the station's UTC offset, and this site takes that offset from NOAA's own answers rather than from a timezone table — so it is the live panel above, which has them, that shows the times.
