NO. This is when the tides are some of the highest.
Higher-than-average "spring" tides occur at the new moon and full moon phases. Lower-than-average "neap" tides happen at the quarter-moon phases.
In April, we typically experience spring tides, which occur during the full moon and new moon phases. These tides have higher highs and lower lows due to the alignment of the sun, moon, and Earth.
When the moon is aligned to the sun and the earth: MOON --> EARTH --> SUN
"Spring" tides are higher-than-normal tides that occur when the Moon is full or new; when the tidal forces of the Sun and Moon are additive. Lower-than-normal "neap" tides happen when the Moon is at the 1st or 3rd quarter, when the Moon and the Sun are working at cross-purposes on the tides.
"Spring" tides, which are a little higher than average, occur at new moons and full moons. "Neap" tides, a little lower than average, occur at the quarter moon phases.
During the new and full moons, the gravitational pull of the Moon and Sun align, causing higher high tides (spring tides) and lower low tides (neap tides). This alignment results in more extreme tidal fluctuations than during other phases of the moon.
The highest tides, known as spring tides, occur during the full moon and new moon phases when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, creating a stronger gravitational pull on the ocean. Spring tides cause higher high tides and lower low tides.
The moon phase that has the highest tides is the full moon and the new moon, known as spring tides. During these phases, the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun align, resulting in more significant differences between high and low tides. This effect can cause higher high tides and lower low tides compared to other moon phases.
Extreme tides, known as spring tides, occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth are aligned, creating increased gravitational pull on the ocean. This alignment happens during a full moon and new moon, resulting in higher high tides and lower low tides.
I have the same question :/ Hope someone helps you.
The two main types of tides are spring tides and neap tides. Spring tides occur during the full moon and new moon phases when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, creating higher high tides and lower low tides. Neap tides occur during the first and third quarter moon phases when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other, resulting in lower high tides and higher low tides.
When the Moon and the Sun are on the same side of the Earth, or on opposite sides of the Earth (i.e., full moon or new moon), their effects are in the same direction, and the tides are stronger (spring tides). When they are at right angles, their effects will partially cancel, and the tides are weaker (neap tides - not sure about the spelling).
