What is another word for lee tide?
Pronunciation: [lˈiː tˈa͡ɪd] (IPA) 
The term 'lee tide' refers to a tide that runs in the direction of the wind. Synonyms for this phenomenon include wind tide and off-shore tide. These tides occur when there is high pressure on land, which causes the wind to blow out to sea. As a result, the water on the coast is pushed out to sea as well, creating a lee tide. Other synonyms for this term include a wind-driven tide and a wind-induced tide. Regardless of the terminology used, the presence of a lee tide has a significant impact on coastal areas, affecting everything from marine ecosystems to recreational activities like surfing and swimming.
