Interpretation of tide station icons - what do they mean?
-
My tide icons are a ship, up/down arrows, L and H. Where is the legend for these icons? Or can someone tell me what they mean?

@gsmith73
It just means there is a tidal gauge station at this location and when tidal data is available you see at same place that the tide level is upward / downward / high / low.
In addition at any location over water, the forecast Tide & waves shows the graphical variation of the level. -
@idefix37 OK
So please confirm: up arrow is rising tide, down arrow is falling tide, L is low tide (how long?), and H is high tide?

Also, what is the ship symbol?

@gsmith73
Yes.
How long is the low tide? Sorry I don’t know how you can consider the duration of the low tide.Try the tide chart in the local forecast table

Also, what is the ship symbol?
As said the ship symbol just means there is a tidal gauge station at this location, I guess.
