Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. Although the evening high tide may approach 20.0 ft, barometric pressure around 1001 hPa is not especially low, and NOAA’s recent flood likelihood rating is 0%.
WHEN
Highest tide near 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM local time on June 28.
IMPACTS
No significant flooding impacts are anticipated. Low-lying areas along the shore should remain largely unaffected.
• Compared to historical events, the tide height is below the 21+ ft often associated with more serious flooding.
• The barometric pressure is higher than thresholds observed during past severe flooding (for example, the Category 5 event on 12/27/2022 had much lower pressure and a tide exceeding 22 ft).
• NOAA states a 0% flooding likelihood for this date, further confirming minimal risk.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. Although one of the morning high tides coincides with somewhat lower pressure (~998 hPa), the tide itself is under 17 ft and not in the typical higher-risk range.
WHEN
Highest tides occur near 6:30 AM and again around 8:30 PM on June 29, but neither is expected to reach levels that historically cause flooding.
IMPACTS
No significant coastal impacts or inundation are anticipated for Day 2.
• Historical Category 4–5 events involve both a higher tide (usually exceeding 20–21 ft) and much lower pressure; conditions on June 29 do not match those.
• NOAA continues to forecast a 0% likelihood of flooding, aligning with no immediate threats.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. Projected tide heights, while moderately high (about 19 ft), remain below critical thresholds, and the forecast barometric pressure near 1003 hPa is not sufficiently low to raise concern.
WHEN
High tide peaks occur around 7:30 AM and 9:30 PM on June 30, both remaining under typical flood-triggering levels.
IMPACTS
Little to no impact on coastal infrastructure or roads.
• Compared with historically significant floods (such as the Category 5 event from 12/27/2022, which had lower pressure and tides exceeding 22 ft), current conditions are not comparable in severity.
• NOAA’s assessment remains at 0% likelihood of flooding for this date.
You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action should flooding develop.
Categories 1-2: No risk of flooding.
Category 3: Close to a flood event and worth monitoring.
Category 4: Flooding is likely however, it is uncertain if this will cause major property damage.
Category 5: Likely to flood and cause property damage.
Categories 6-7: Extremely high risk of flooding and property damage.
