Tidal current predictions for a CO-OPS current station: max flood/ebb speeds, slack times, and directions. These are forecast tidal-current predictions from CO-OPS — distinct from noaa_marine_get_current_profile, which returns NDBC observed ocean-current measurements binned by depth. Defaults to MAX_SLACK interval — the practical planning view showing when currents peak and when slack water occurs. Optionally returns 6-minute continuous predictions for detailed analysis. Current station IDs use alphanumeric format (e.g. ACT4176), distinct from numeric tide/water-level IDs. Date range is limited to 1 year per request. Use noaa_marine_find_stations with types=["current"] to obtain valid current station IDs.
