Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} iCal feed for phone

I have always had good luck using Saltwater tides with the Washington national airport site for four mile. It looks like the NOAA has high at 8:51am on Monday for Alexandria and saltwater tides has it at 8:49am for Washington national airport. they seem to match fine. Which site did you pick on saltwater tides?

Was looking for ical feed for my android to monitor Potomac tides.

I started with this:

http://www.saltwatertides.com/cgi-local/neatlantic.cgi

and then checked it against NOAA

http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/noaatidepredictions/viewDailyPredictions.jsp?bmon=02&bday=11&byear=2013&timelength=daily&timeZone=2&dataUnits=1&datum=MLLW&timeUnits=2&interval=highlow&format=Submit&Stationid=8634214

They are completely opposite.  NOAA has the high at about 9 and Saltwater has the low at same time.

After a little more digging I found this:

webcal://tides.mobilegeographics.com/ical/5251.ics

 
It matches the NOAA chart so I think it is correct.

Figure its close enough for 4MR

Comments welcome.
