Please note: In many cases, the station position in our database is accurate
to only one minute. Thus, the tide gauge may not appear to be on the coast.
Many stations on the Gulf coast have large values for September 1961.

Using information from the NOAA website the RLR diagram has been revised. Previous Primary benchmark BM 6 no longer appears in the NOAA reports. Benchmark 5520 C 1978 which appears in the original RLR diagram is included in the NOAA 1987 report with the same value of 2.755m but does not feature in the 2003 report. Current Primary benchmark appears in both reports 5520 A 1978 with the same value of 2.746m relative to gauge datum.
