As of June 17 2025, Midnight Pass is at a record maximum depth & cross sectional area since its re-opening at 17.7ft deep with a cross sectional area of 1222 sq-ft.

At the end of October 2024, it was just 13.3ft deep with a cross sectional area of 844 sq-ft.

Flow rate is the product of the cross sectional area and tidal velocity of water through the pass. More cross sectional area gives more flow.
