Right, but those are not entered on a chart are they?

Yes, those of us with a functioning brain knew that. I believe that
charted depths are given at MLW and it's up to the sailor to know the tide
table and apply it. Maybe that's why that site gave it that way?

Around here, heights are given above chart datum, which is traditionally the
same as LAT. This can vary from one port to another. Today, at Low Water,
Portsmouth will have 2m (6'6") above CD.

Also, we have MLWS, and MWLN but we don't have a plain MLW.

To tell you the truth, I'm not terribly concerned with the rampblings
of someone who thinks a comic book character is God.

The Aesir hold a lot of concern for you to spend so many years
honoring them with your vulgar opposition. You clearly think
they are worth opposing.

Opposing?

You're really well below not oo bright, aren't you?

No - LAT is "Lowest Astronomical Tide" or the lowest tide that would be predicted. LLWLT,
or "Lower Low Water Large Tide" is the average of the lowest low water for each year in a
19 year cycle.

Presumably, LAT would be the lowest of the lowest low water in the 19 year cycle, not the
average.

Here (and the UK I believe) it is the "lowest astromical tide". If you
think about it, that is the only sensible datum for a _sounding_!

How old is that chart? All of my US charts from the recent past use MLLW

as the datum for

soundings. I even checked in my Chesapeake ChartKit to see if they were

different.

OK - Here's a quiz: What's the meaning of LLWLT?

Lower Low Water Large Tide.


Sounds similiar to LAT.

That's a relief, after seeing how your last prediction panned out.

huh? Who really cares what you do with your time? You want to
worship the Old Gods, go right ahead.

But don't be hurt when this crap gets cross-linked to alt.atheism,
where we find all religious beliefs rather silly at best.

And for your information, I wear a Tyr rune that was a gift from an
asatru friend. She gave to me as I was about to start chemotherapy.
Said it would help me focus my warrior side for the fight. I've worn
it everyday since. Not because I believe in Tyr, but because I
appreciated the gesture and what it meant.

That would really depend on whether the lowest low had been predicted,
wouldn't it?

Anyway, LAT is much better than LLWLT.

For one thing, you can remember the letters without having to look them up!
