Wind and weather at Whidbey Island
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 | 4–11 kn SSW | 15 kn | 53–64 °F | Mostly cloudy | 45 % |
| Mon, September 14 | 2–5 kn SSE | 6 kn | 52–63 °F | Mostly cloudy | 6 % |
| Tue, September 15 | 0–7 kn WNW | 8 kn | 52–62 °F | Partly cloudy | 10 % |
| Wed, September 16 | 0–6 kn N | 7 kn | 51–64 °F | Mostly sunny | 1 % |
| Thu, September 17 | 0–5 kn N | 6 kn | 52–67 °F | Mostly sunny | 0 % |
| Fri, September 18 | 0–3 kn N | 4 kn | 53–68 °F | Mostly sunny | 0 % |
| Sat, September 19 | 0–5 kn WSW | 8 kn | 53–66 °F | Partly cloudy | 6 % |

Boating, beach and fishing at Whidbey Island
The same forecast as above, read for three things people do here. Each verdict names what decided it.
| Day | Boating | Beach | Fishing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Today | Goodwind 11 kn or less | Pooronly 64 °F | Goodlight wind, major window in daylight |
| Mon, September 14 | Goodwind 5 kn or less | Pooronly 63 °F | Goodlight wind, major window in daylight |
| Tue, September 15 | Goodwind 7 kn or less | Pooronly 62 °F | Goodlight wind, major window in daylight |
| Wed, September 16 | Goodwind 6 kn or less | Pooronly 64 °F | Goodlight wind, major window in daylight |
| Thu, September 17 | Goodwind 5 kn or less | Fair67 °F | Goodlight wind, major window in daylight |
| Fri, September 18 | Goodwind 3 kn or less | Fair68 °F | Goodlight wind, major window in daylight |
| Sat, September 19 | Goodwind 5 kn or less | Fair66 °F | Goodlight wind, major window in daylight |
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 Whidbey Island
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 Whidbey Island 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 Whidbey Island today?
- High water at 6:09 am (6.2 ft) and 5:44 pm (7.0 ft), local time in Whidbey Island. 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 Whidbey Island today?
- Low water at 11:42 am (2.7 ft), local time in Whidbey Island. 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 Whidbey Island get in a day?
- Two high waters and two low waters on most days, a little over six hours apart. Over the seven days on this page that comes to 13 high waters and 12 low waters. Where a date shows only three turns, the fourth has slipped past midnight and is listed under the following day.
- What is the tidal range at Whidbey Island?
- About 4.3 ft between today's lowest and highest water. Across the next seven days the water moves between 0.5 and 7.0 ft — a span of about 6.5 ft.
- Which tide station do these Whidbey Island tide times come from?
- NOAA station 9447973, NAS Whidbey Island — a reference station. The naval air station at the north end of the island. Whidbey stretches 60 km; at its southern end on Possession Sound the tide runs later than here. A reference station has its own long-running record, which is the strongest basis NOAA publishes. The predictions here are NOAA's, unchanged.
- What time zone are the Whidbey Island tide times in?
- Every time on this page is clock time in Whidbey Island — the America/Los_Angeles 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 Whidbey Island today?
- The major windows run 1:44 am to 3:44 am and 2:06 pm to 4:06 pm, with shorter minor windows around moonrise and moonset. They are computed from the moon's position over Whidbey Island, not measured — anglers use them to pick a time on the water. The moon is 8% lit and waxing.
- How far ahead does this Whidbey Island 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.
