How do you have a tide guage on an overhead wire?

Well put, Scotty.

But MC does have a point - under the US system you have to check to see if the current
tide is much higher than MHW; in other countries where the datum for bridge clearance is
the Spring Tide level, or the Large Tides, its a bit easier.

However the best thing to do is to read the gauge board on the bridge and ask the

Hmmm. That's a worry. Might mean you'll need tide tables to decide if
you can pass an overhead...
