Wind and weather at Punta Gorda
Seven days from the National Weather Service forecast for this stretch of coast. Each row is the range across the whole day, not a reading for one moment.
| Day | Wind | Gusts | Air | Sky | Rain |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Today | 2–5 kn ESE | 8 kn | 80–88 °F | Partly cloudy | 71 % |

| Tue, September 15 | 6–13 kn ENE | 15 kn | 79–88 °F | Mostly sunny | 74 % |
| Wed, September 16 | 11–18 kn ENE | 23 kn | 79–86 °F | Mostly sunny | 72 % |
| Thu, September 17 | 11–16 kn ENE | 18 kn | 79–86 °F | Mostly sunny | 72 % |
| Fri, September 18 | 6–12 kn ENE | 13 kn | 78–86 °F | Partly cloudy | 76 % |

Boating, beach and fishing at Punta Gorda
The same forecast as above, read for three things people do here. Each verdict names what decided it.

|---|---|---|---|

| Mon, September 14 | Goodwind 7 kn or less | Fair56% chance of rain | Goodlight wind, major window in daylight |
| Tue, September 15 | Goodwind 13 kn or less | Poor74% chance of rain | Fair74% chance of rain |
| Wed, September 16 | Fairgusts to 23 kn | Poor72% chance of rain | Fair72% chance of rain |
| Thu, September 17 | Fairgusts to 18 kn | Poor72% chance of rain | Fair72% chance of rain |
| Fri, September 18 | Goodwind 12 kn or less | Poor76% chance of rain | Fair76% chance of rain |
| Sat, September 19 | Goodwind 7 kn or less | Poor67% chance of rain | Fair67% chance of rain |
Boating turns to Poor at the National Weather Service small craft threshold — sustained wind of 22 kn, gusts of 26 kn, or seas of 5 ft — and to Fair at 15 kn or 3 ft. Beach weighs air temperature, chance of rain and wind.Fishing asks whether the day is fishable at all and whether a solunar major window falls in daylight; it is not a prediction of what will bite. None of this replaces the marine forecast before you go out.

Solunar windows for Punta Gorda
The moon pulls hardest when it is directly overhead or on the far side of the earth — the two major windows of about two hours. The shorter minor windows sit around moonrise and moonset. Anglers use them to pick a time on the water; they are computed from the moon's position, not measured.

Questions about Punta Gorda tides
Answered from the same NOAA predictions as the table above; the solunar windows come from this page's own moon calculation. Where this page has no basis for an answer, there is no entry.
- What time is high tide in Punta Gorda today?
- High water at 4:31 am (1.9 ft) and 5:38 pm (1.8 ft), local time in Punta Gorda. Heights are feet above MLLW. Because the tide runs on the moon rather than the clock, each turn falls roughly 50 minutes later tomorrow — the seven-day table above carries the shift.
- What time is low tide in Punta Gorda today?
- Low water at 11:35 am (0.5 ft) and 11:31 pm (1.0 ft), local time in Punta Gorda. A height below zero is a minus tide: the water falls further than MLLW, the level the heights are counted from.
- How many tides does Punta Gorda get in a day?
- The pattern shifts through the week here: some days bring two high waters and two low waters, others bring just one of each, as the moon's angle to the equator changes. Over the seven days on this page that comes to 11 high waters and 11 low waters.
- What is the tidal range at Punta Gorda?
- About 1.5 ft between today's lowest and highest water. Across the next seven days the water moves between 0.3 and 2.1 ft — a span of about 1.8 ft. The swing here follows the moon's angle to the equator: widest when the moon stands furthest north or south of it, narrowest about a week later as it crosses, and widest again a fortnight on.
- Which tide station do these Punta Gorda tide times come from?
- NOAA station 8725744 — a subordinate station, about 3.4 km from the centre of Punta Gorda. Punta Gorda on Charlotte Harbor. A subordinate station carries no gauge of its own: NOAA publishes its times as an offset from a nearby reference station, which is how the agency itself issues them. The predictions here are NOAA's, unchanged.
- What time zone are the Punta Gorda tide times in?
- Every time on this page is clock time in Punta Gorda — the America/New_York zone, daylight saving already applied. Nothing has to be converted, and no time is shown in UTC except the retrieval stamp at the foot of the page.
- When are the solunar windows at Punta Gorda today?
- The major windows run 1:56 am to 3:56 am and 2:19 pm to 4:19 pm, with shorter minor windows around moonrise and moonset. They are computed from the moon's position over Punta Gorda, not measured — anglers use them to pick a time on the water. The moon is 7% lit and waxing.
- How far ahead does this Punta Gorda tide chart go?
- Seven days in the table, and every high and low water for September 2026 and October 2026 in the calendar below it. The page is rebuilt every morning, so the first day is always today.
